So how are you supposed to start a conversation with a girl from a dating site?
I have no problems keeping the conversation going, but starting it seems awkward.
How about hi?

No shit, sherlock.
>>18049699
What's the problem, then?
>>18049720
>Hi
>Hello
Now what? How do you actually get the ball rolling?
>>18049726
Ask her about her stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
>>18049741
This has gotten me laid on multiple occasions.

Be aware that this advice is coming from someone who has no friends and is not a successful conversationalist. That being said, I have looked into this for my own sake, and have gathered the following (general, not specific to dating) tips for conversation:
ask an open ended question
tell an anecdote relating to their response.
In your anecdote, communicate your feelings / emotions during the events, using the rule "show don't tell" (i.e. don't just say "I got excited")
