So you get her IG or FB? Then what? You like her statuses and pics? Message each other through DM/PM? Then what? When and how does it progress?

You look through the information that she feels comfortable to share with 7billion people and see if you there are any red flags.
If not, you get her, number and ask her out.

I don't know why being cautious is seen as a negative, given how many people are full of shyt.

Eh, no. Once you get past, say, 25, meeting people gets increasingly harder. Nothing wrong with using Tinder or any other online dating apps.
How? Go to social places breh. Unless you in college, it ain't different than any other age bracket.

My social media gives out way more info out than my phone number.
Are you smoking?

Nowadays everybody's phone number is tied to their social media and more. I can Dead ass find where you live just off the strength of you giving me your phone number if I was about it. shyt isn't that hard

Do u believe the avg person is doing that? I'm not opposed to him eventually having it, it's just that he should be going for my direct line.

Funny thing is that men do certain poses too. Dudes be looking different in each picture. One guy I met had a big ass stomach and was way fatter than I thought. And I had access to his IG and Facebook and still ain't realize he was that big. It didn't really bother me that much though.
I woulda got your number then asked for your IG or for more pics over imessage.

But I have a rule of thumb anyway, all angles and/or no body pics =fat. I have not been proven wrong yet.

Not saying you did this, just what ive noticed.

yes i do that shyt and so do my homies, in fact the minute a chick gives me her number im using that same number to find her facebook ,instagram, twitter, linkedin, and snapchat. why? because they are all linked to that same number. it is literally the easiest thing in the world :bryan:

Fb and IG is way more personally than a phone number. Think about how fb and IG shows your locations if you got that setting on. Think about all of those pics they can do anything with. Think about all your family that is connected to it. I got an iPhone. So if I don't like him he can be blocked instantly. On social media he could be collecting so much information... my social media is not passed out like that.

Basically...what's the point in him being on another social site if I don't know him like that? The next step is to exchange numbers not just hop on another social site. That's backwards
well then tell him you aren't giving out your social media contacts to people you've just met and offer him your number so you can get to know each other better instead of writing him off :yeshrug:

Accuse men of immaturity when you aren't even willing to assume responsibility for a text conversation :francis:

talk about maturity when you write in annoyingly brightly coloured hard to read fonts brehettes.:dame:
