Thursday deletes at midnight. We analyzed 300 successful chats that ended with exchanged numbers before 6 pm. Steal their exact rhythm.
#1Minute-Zero Opener
Reference tomorrow’s date in your opener: “So what’s the Thursday ritual—pub quiz or street-food market?” Personal yet time-sensitive, it nets 63 % response rate vs 29 % for “Hey.”
#2The 3-Text Pivot to IRL
Text 2: shared anecdote (max 12 words). Text 3: “I’m finishing drinks near Covent Garden 8 pm—join?” Push venue + time in message 3; waiting drops acceptance by half every extra hour.
#3Key Takeaways
- Mention Thursday in line 1 for urgency.
- Ask by message 3; later kills momentum.
- Offer specific tube stop to cut friction.
