Okay now let's say that you're single, and you're at the mall with three of your friends. Let's say that, a fairly attractive (average looking?) guy walks up to you and your friends while you are sitting down in the food court, and he tells you that "I just wanted to let you know that you look beautiful" to you, and you say "thank you" to him, then he says "you're welcome" and goes back to joining his group of friends. Well let's say that five minutes later and is very polite, and says that it is really unlike him to do something like this, then he hands you a piece of paper with his Facebook profile URL and e-mail address on it, and he tells you his name. Then you shake hands with him and tell him your name, and he goes back to join his friends again. Would you send him a friend request and/or message on Facebook (or e-mail)?

No.

I don't have facebook for starters.

Second...you are a complete stranger so I would not likely e-mail you either.

I wouldn't respond to anyone that didn't give me a phone number.

My FB is only for friends and family, I don't add random people. I had a guy friend that used to go around handing out business cards with his myspace profile address on it...weird.

If you're interested, give me your phone number or ask for mine, no FB or Twitter or anything else.

Check him out on facebook that's it.

Or talk to him at the mall if you see him again.

I give him props for having the balls to talk to you.

Yet you have no idea who he is.

It's kind of a flattering yet awkward situation.

I'm a guy..and I have a cell phone that has a phone number and minutes to burn. If I do this with a woman, I'm giving her a phone number, not my email and facebook. I don't take facebook that seriously, and that's bizarre to hand out your email address..

Do you give out your number? I rarely do as I prefer to take his.

That wasn't even a good conversation.

I am fairly open about who add on facebook. But the minimum requirement is that we need to connect and/or have common friends or interests.

That guy didn't even say enough for me to remember his face in 3 days.

Why can only females answer this? Are you sexist?
