Default No idea what the OP is talking about

I really do not understand if there is any validation or even a real question here...

Is this about money, or what exactly? I have never seen a guy that had "connections" get more women JUST because he did. However, if his friends were nice and intelligent people, it certainly would make me more likely to date him than the guy that hung out with a bunch of foul-mouthed simpletons. But, then, that's just me :roll eyes:

The issue about women overall actually making more money than men? I want to see those statistics....

In today's age, a man's social network is the new 'money'
Social capital.

That's why it pays to have good social skills.

Discuss
having social skills, and having a large number of friends, are not the same thing.

I would argue that they are. How can you have a large number of friends if you're not good with people?

Yes, I met someone in recovery for addiction. living with her mom, and having her days filled with testing and drug court.

She told my friend I was a "pity friend" and she felt sorry for me because, "I had no friends". She told a friend of mine that. I have 150 friends on facebook, the average amount someone can actually keep track of and actually remember their names.

She has 483, some of them rehab friends, and her sponsor, some nigerian scammers, and basically anyone she can add. Her last "two friends", before the rehab nitwit with the bad race jokes and his gf, who will dump her to hang out with him, were some druggies she got busted with that landed her in court. And then an old best friend from high school who is 5 states away.

Thing is, I don't add all of my real life friends to facebook because they aren't. One of my friends is the judge who rules over her every two weeks. Hmmmm.

Easy, follow the herd and be a doormat. Give everyone you meet what they want even at your expense or detriment. Show me a convict with a big butt and I'll show you someone who had over 5,000 "frends" by modern people's standards.

There are fake people on facebook breaking 400 friends all the time. Then they tag their friends with shoe ads.
