Random guys have been adding me on Facebook and then they would send me a message saying,"Hey what's up?You're really pretty." Idk, I find it kind of creepy that these random guys add me and basically say the same thing. Why do some guys add girls just because they're pretty?
Just to make small talk and let the woman know you are interested in them. If you are on a womens Facebook page you can find out quite a bit about her by reading her page. Its a good way to weigh you options if you are single. Don't look at it as a negative, but look at it as a good option to meet new people. Social Networking what the whole site was built to do. OK!
I have a similar question around a month ago. I have even devised a solution so that no stranger of the opposite gender can add friends. Unfortunately, no one is interested in knowing the answer. :-(
Well you should just add people you know. I don't really know how people can just add random people like that just because thier pretty I mean I would feel really creepy and awkward. Plus I would just not do it (way to shy). Even people that I knew say couple of years ago and had classes togather had fun with, I feel really awkward just adding them. ( yeah I'm weird like that I'm to negative).
Because everyone likes pretty girls. These dudes want to have sex with you, and Facebook is the first step on the (long) road.
The point is: enjoy this attention while it lasts, because it won't last forever. (It's a sad indictment of our biology that a girl's worth begins and ends with how hot she is.)
Simply because women and man simulations are different, for one guy it's important that thing of talk, for 9 of 10 women, this it's "creepy"or just commom.
If you are unsatisfied and doesn't find what you are looking for, try to keep a different profile, less focused on your physics but more in other things that you like in mens.
what if it was a good looking girl try to add guys to her friends list and maybe even more ask them out..will that be creepy?
the internet make things way easy and fast to guys and girls all around the world to meet and talk online on too many sites just like this one that we are using now.
You already answered your own question. It's not really a big deal though. Accept them or don't. Who knows, maybe you could end up becoming real friends because of it.
maybe what the real questions are: why are you judging men when all they are looking for is an ice breaker to meet women?
why do women make it so dam difficult for shy guys to approach?
why are you such a SNOB for putting shy guys who's only shortcoming is not having social skills that you demand they be born with, but no one to teach nor a book to learn from, nor class to take?
why don't you stop putting men down just for making any sort of effort to make a connection?
The basic reason is usually that they are the kind of guys that don't have the balls to talk to you first in persons and become friends that way. I consider Facebook to be a networking site for people you ALREADY know. I hardly ever really on it to meet new people. My friends list consists of family, old high school acquaintances, and people I know now in college or had classes with. I browse Facebook for hotties at my college, but I don't add them just for the hell of it, lol, because I know that is creepy. It would just seem awkward to see them one day and say something like "Hey, remember me from the internet?" LOL. I'd be afraid I would get pepper sprayed in the face or something.
My advice is just don't confirm those friend requests unless you actually know the guy somehow. Otherwise, they probably just want to seem like they're associated with you because they think you're hot. Normal guys don't have to Facebook-friend random girls to meet them.
It's funny, I was just thinking that if a random hot girl friended me, I would definitely accept. Call me a hypocrite, I don't care! lol. - 3 months ago
THANK YOU!!! Sheesh - why ask the question anyways, when ur butt already knew the answer unless you wanted even more attn... What do they call people like that again - attn who...s. lol - 3 months ago
Not that this is right, but... law of association.
The idea of law of association says: People see you with a pretty girl, then they think you're going to be worth dating pretty girls. And therefore, your "stock" goes way up. Even if you're not dating, people may, if they consciously think about it, think you are. Or at least that this guy is worth a look. If YOU find him worthwhile, then they might too.
If you see the letters x x x , then you assume that the two x's have something in common; they're a pair. A couple. That third x is alone. We all do it, to a degree. But some guys have kind of a slightly messed up idea in how far they go to try and get others to think they're worthwhile.
I spend time with friends because I like them. The level of attraction is somewhat moot.
However, if the girl happens to be attractive, and if a person looks at us and assumes we're dating, that's a plus, but it's not why I spend time with them and that's not how I operate.
I think girls will get that more than guys will. It's up to you if you want to friend them, but them telling you that they will publicly compliment you if you friend them does come across as antisocial. Now, randomly writing a girl, and giving them a quick and classy compliment, without expectations, as long as you leave them alone after, that might be cool. Even that can come across as a little odd.
It's up to you. I think friending people for no purpose is a bit goofy, but that's me. "Oh, I have 3000 friends! I'm popular, everyone! PLEEEEEAAAAAASE LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Sometimes it's spam; but sometimes it's just a dude who ranges from slightly awkward to full blown creepy or antisocial.
Sometimes it's a joke or prank.
I have a great friend who happens to have really gorgeous sisters. Like they could easily be models. Really genuine kind people; His whole family is awesome. I count his sisters almost like they're like my sisters.
Once in a while, they'll get friend requests from guys with goofy expressions, and it'll be from their brother; just to see if they'd friend the weird lookin' dude, just to poke fun at them.
A couple of women I know got all kinds of compliments from the same guy; H'es not normally big on compliments; they thought it was so nice, but seemed a little strange.
Then they found out my friend had checked his Facebook account on another friend's computer and had forgotten to sign out, and it was actually the other guy pretending to be him for a gag.
Just like you getg random friend requests from guys, I can attest to now six friend requests I have received from women, with messages about my looks.
What I know is it's a hoax. And a very poorly operated one at that. They are probably trying to find profiles they can hack into so they can spread bad links for people to click on, and then corrupt your friends profiles too.
Hackers come in all sorts of communications on the web.
OK here is what you do. You never EVER add those creepers to your friend list. ignore them because all they really want is to be acquainted to you, a really pretty girl, and the reason they say that and do it on Facebook is because in person, they wouldn't be able to do that or if they did, they KNOW they would be rejected.
By doing it on Facebook, there's a chance to NOT be rejected and because its all texting on there, if they ever start talking to you, its easy to choose your words and say the right thing, get to know you and eventually their goal is to meet you, be your buddy and then try and make out with you.
The approach is absolutely lame, creepy and effortless. You and I know what they are thinking when a guy says ur pretty and they want to be your friend straight up like that. Guys your age who dare say something like that, who you don't even know most importantly, are looking for sex or potential blowjobs and handjobs... delete all of these guys... Facebook isn't about having as many friends as possible and showing everyone how popular you are... I just have my closest friends and some distant friends too but I don't have 500 people on there or even 200.
I could care less what people think about me on a website like Facebook seeing my favorite books and movies and my quotations... its just a website and it by NO MEANS reflect who I REALLY AM. I could make sh*t up and say I swim with sharks as a pasttime. I could care less.
And you shouldnt find it " kind of creepy". SAY it as it is. It IS creepy. You should be sure of your first impressions. They tell alot, but most people let it go and take a second or third impression. Trust your gut feelings, I've learned that the hard way lol
So just try and ignore these creepers because chances are, if you are that girl, this type of approach on the internet and in Real life will happen for year and years to come. I guess its one of the kryptonites for beautiful women.
Well, next time it happens, you can simply try finding out more about them if you wish to add them. I try to do a little bit of investigating on this site itself whenever I get a friend request. Never hurts to do so. Because well, some people are creepy and beyond. You just don't know.
just like you'r going to the mall where there's some random guys who gonna hit on you and trying to gett you'r number, but its online. are they around you'r age? or older?
lol it's sort of creepy. One time Facebook suggested I add this person, who I knew and everything, but not that well at all, and I did add her because she is pretty. lol
well I used to to this , I would usually poke them first before I added them though and I only added the girls who poked back that way I know they were interested in geting to know me , if they didn't poke back I'd just ignore them and wouldn't add them as a friend . so I only added random girls as friends if they replied back in some way .
i poked them if they were pretty cause as a guy I want to get to know some attractive girls and maybe date one of them , that's sort of was my goal back then .
some of those guys are so dodge, never add them cos you don't no who the hell it is. don't you find it odd that the guy has to add and flirt with you over a computer...u just don't know what's going on in der heads
It can be creepy, especially if they are way older than you, just don't let it bug you too much. It is just like real life when guys come up to you and hit on you. If you don't want theses guys to keep messaging you, then don't add them in the first place or just ignore it.
just like real life, they're hitting on girls that they want to target as a potential girl friend or someone they want to talk with or they might be creepers with fake profiles.
It's a social networking site, that's what it's for. All they are doing is networking. Personally I don't add anyone that I don't know because strangers don't need to be seeing pictures of me and my family. If you don't like it just ignore them.
Man. For awhile I started just getting messages. never adds. but messages from british guys saying stuff along the lines of, "Hey, don't mean to be weird. but I saw your picture in a group we're both in and I thought I'd let you know that you are just stunning! That's all really : )"
never wanting anything more than that...and I'd say thanks and we'd talk a little bit but it never was creepy. just basically like "Hey you're real pretty! bye!"
Exactly! Why else wld they add you? Why ask this question? It's like you are either wanting us to know that you are hot and saying: look at all the attn I get or you truly have no clue. Either way, it's kind of sad! lol - 3 months ago

I get this a lot too. Most I've deleted, Never talk to, or I've become good Facebook friends with =}. They add you because they want to talk to a pretty girl, and enjoy lusting after your pictures. I'm sure if you saw a hot guy, then you'd wannt to get to know him too.
I could see it. For example, I play Mafia Wars; 20 of my "real life" friends play it. I have over 90 in my mafia.
However, most of these people see an EXTREMELY limited profile. Name, my network maybe, and Mafia Wars related posts. That's about it. Things like that, I could see adding strangers, so long as you're careful and know how to protect yourself properly.

It happens to me a lot on here. Generally I declined them but if the person has an interesting profile I'll leave it pending until I've had a chance...
