I think if you are trying to offer the role as teach/learner, accepting a professorly like tone may give the other-self the hint. I think in this situation specifically it should be more blue-ray than green-ray, because the reason people are on dating sites is primarily seeking the green-ray, so when you are mostly congenial they pick up on that, which is why I assume the rejection sets in harder after a few back and forths. It's that ever-so-fine balancing act.
I think people's red ray drives them to dating sites. :p
