Since I've taken a break from online dating. I then discovered the "people you may know" or "suggested friends" list that pops up from time to time.
They usually are there because you share some mutual friends on Facebook. I figured that using that as a resource to get to know some ladies where we share a few mutual friends as a reason to break the ice.
Good idea, bad idea? I be like, "Hey, I see we share 5 friends on Facebook, small world!"
No. Majority of women don't respond to Facebook messages from random people they've never met. The number of scammers across all forms of social media has increased to the point where very few people trust random strangers contacting them by any means. It doesn't matter if you have mutual friends because if you've never met in person, most women will delete your message without reading it.

Yeah, but it has worked for me, eventually. lol. I be like, "Hey, you know Sue...me and him hang out at so-and-so How long have you known her? Sometimes I'll use a hobby or activity we all have in common based on shared interests.

Agreed. If I haven't met someone in person, or atleast worked with them on projects for quite awhile (at a distance), I'm not adding them, and not communicating with them. It's just odd to me. Each to their own.

I don't know anyone who uses Facebook for OLD but I guess you could give it a try - the worst that could happen is you get shot down and blocked.
