WYD
Also known as: What you doing, What're you doing
'What you doing' — a low-effort opener message.
Definition
WYD ('what you doing') is the most-criticized dating-app opener for a reason: it's effort-free, signals nothing about the sender's interest in the recipient specifically, and is interchangeable across thousands of profiles. Almost every advice column on dating-app messaging cites 'don't open with wyd' as a baseline rule.
