Are you one of many people engaging in video chat dating for the very first time? Sitting in front of a person you don’t know very well and trying to see if there’s a connection is difficult enough on a regular date, but a virtual one?! Add a screen to the mix and it becomes even harder to gauge body language, social cues and the like.

With a few well-intended conversation starters, you’ll know pretty damn quickly whether or not your virtual Hinge date is a match (or not).
