Prompts and example answers

Hinge prompts that start conversations

Your three Hinge prompts do more work than your bio ever did on other apps. People like or comment on a specific answer, so each one should give her something to reply to.

Pick prompts that let you show a detail about your life, then answer them specifically.

What makes a prompt answer work

Specific beats general. "Maggi at 2 am after a Kasol trek" beats "I love travelling".
Leave a door open: an opinion she can disagree with, a question, or a small challenge.
Keep it short enough to read in one glance.
Mix light and real: one funny answer, one that says what you want.

Prompts worth picking, with example answers

A shower thought I recently had: if you add "bro" at the end of any sentence, it becomes a Delhi sentence, bro.
Together, we could: find the best momos in the city and argue about the chutney.
I go crazy for: people who reply to voice notes with voice notes.
My simple pleasures: first chai of the day, a long drive with the windows down, a new playlist.
The way to win me over is: pick the restaurant. I will be grateful forever.
I bet you can not: beat me at antakshari. I know every 90s song.
Typical Sunday: cricket in the morning, biryani at lunch, regret about the biryani at 4.
I am looking for: someone who laughs easily and still texts back.

Prompt answers to avoid

Lists of adjectives: "chill, loyal, ambitious, foodie".
Requirements: "no fake profiles", "only serious people".
Inside jokes no one else understands.
Answers that say nothing: "ask me", "will tell you later".

Questions

How many Hinge prompts should I fill in?

Hinge shows three prompts on your profile. Fill all three, and make each one show something different about you.

Should my Hinge prompts be funny?

One funny answer helps, but keep at least one that says what you are actually looking for.

What is the best way to reply to a Hinge prompt?

Comment on the prompt itself. Pick up a detail from her answer and ask a question or add your own take.
