How does one keep conversation going until meeting on dating apps

How do you keep the conversation going without it dieing and how soon should you arrange to meet in person?

Talk. Despite what u may think of urself u are a human. Communicate ffs.
Furthermore bun online like fr go out. Meet ppl. That is if ur really serious about tryna connect

I’m very shy and take a long time to open up to people which doesn’t help. Any advice for meeting and connecting for shy people?

If you are meeting someone from a dating app, do it safely. Make it in a public place where you have the option of easily walking away and going home, and let other people know where you are.

If you want to develop your self-confidence get involved with people who share your interests by volunteering or doing activities related to hobbies or sports etc.

The latter I tend to end up just making friends at things like volunteering, activities, interests. And don’t end up dating anyone. Any advice on this?

Aim to get to know the other person. I feel like you should establish what you both want for the long term or short term to eliminate any misunderstandings before getting to know them on a meaningful level.

How soon you should wait would vary between different individuals and how comfortable they feel.

If you can't keep a conversation going with someone on the app then perhaps it's better to not meet them in person. It sounds like you don't have enough in common.

I think there is enough in common though. They just don’t reply and it happens all the time.

If they aren't replying then they probably don't think there is enough in common or you aren't engaging them enough.

There isn't if you run out of things to talk about before you have even met. If they're not replying then they aren't interested.

So if all of them are not interested, what am I doing wrong? My pictures? My profile is rubbish?

It doesn't necessarily mean you are doing anything wrong. Chances are you just haven't met someone you properly click with yet. When you find someone you're on the same wavelength as conversation will flow naturally.

How do they know that after 2 or 3 message exchanges though? They stop replying typically after 2 or 3 messages.

Then you aren't grabbing their attention.
