Meeting girls on FB is from friends of someone on your friends list. Not sending random private messages to girls you don't know because that is desperate and pathetic
I tried this years ago (2006-7) totally does not work (if the message even gets through to them nowadays) they just ignore it, or think you are some sort of pathetic loser. I know it's rough buddy, fear of rejection and all that, but the only way to meet people is in real life and get over your fears.

These are the ways of meeting someone on FB
1. Being part of a FB group where you both share the same interest...sports/tv/etc
2. Commenting on a friend's post and a friend of that person is interested and wants to know about you
Randomly sending pm's or fb requests makes someone look slow and desperate
Take yourself off of the computer and put yourself out into the world and walk up to a woman you might be interested in taking out on a date and introduce yourself and start talking to her.
Or maybe, even better...fire her off a message asking her out somewhere?

You don't come across as too overly social, anyway.

@coffee18
How is it any weirder than an unknown stranger randomly starting to talk to you in the street and even weirder giving you a compliment right away? People who don't reply are kind of jerks,except if someone twice as old or something like that wants to meet you. And it is only weird on facebook,I know at least 4 or 5 sites where people generally meet each other and that's more or less the whole point of the sites,but unfortunately very little people use those sites. (I don't mean dating sites)
Keep in mind, this is the USA and it's not what you have been told it was back in its heyday. Everyone else on the Internet is a creep in the mind of your average mentally ill woman. What is normal social interaction in Europe, where I assume you are from, does not work here in the USA. I completely understand why this may mystify you, but it is what it is. Cat women galore!

No it's NOT a good idea. Get out into the world.
Which is the idea. Derp. Or should OP waste time canvassing neighborhoods and knocking on doors? Would that be better? Oh, that's right. That's also creepy. But, he got "out into the world"...

He can do all of that after they meet up. Stop making this more difficult than it should be. Geez.

Admittedly, I don't take up Facebook for dating myself, but you seriously can't get out much to believe that you can be that picky with women. Especially when many women you may even consider dating probably have tons of orbiters liking every one of their half naked IG or FB pics.

I get them and I generally make a bet on how long it will take to ask me to either cyber or ask for nude pics. If they don't, then I take the chance on a new friend.
More often than not, they're friends of friends or they've seen me make a comment that they liked and want to get to know me better. I take it as a compliment in either regard and figure that we already have something in common (they think I'm awesome, I think I'm awesome...a stable foundation for any friendship).
