E03.4: Online Dating: Best Chat Up Line, Picture, IRL Meets Ideas

Question 4 of Episode 3 of Anarcho Agony Aunts (formerly known as #NHS4lefties)

''I'm not sure if this has been asked before but I was wondering navigating dating apps.
I'm just getting back into the headspace of dating after taking some time out for myself after the break up of a relationship early last year. Anyway I've plunged into dating app world and made profiles on tinder, bumble and hinge to experiment a bit.
Any suggestions you can make for non-macho dudes who aren't muscle freaks or care for or good at witty chat up lines? Also, whats your preference or general etiquette in terms of asking folk out on dates? Should you speak a bit first or just cut the messaging back and forth and go straight for irl hangs?
Thanks and sorry if these questions are basic! You both rule for spending time thinking through these issues with folks''
