I would recommend starting out with a simple greeting telling the person hello, ask them how they are, and/or tell them your name. You may also want to say something that you found interesting about their profile. For example: “Hi there, my name is Tori and I see that we have the same taste in music!”

How do you end a conversation on text?

End the text conversation with a short text that ends with a period or an exclamation point instead of a question mark to avoid lengthening the conversation. For instance, sending a “Thanks!” or “Got it.” or “Sounds good.” signals there isnt anything else to say.
