Random person started talking to me...

[Illuminate]

What do you do when a random person starts talking to you?

I was on facebook and this guy added me. I accepted because he had like 40 friends in common.
I then get a message saying 'Hey beautiful x'

I honestly find it weird. He's never talked to me before...

Do I reply? or delete? :')

[EndureEmo]

i'd cheak out his profile, or send him a mesage bak saying "do i know you" or "have we met"

[Composure]

Play along. Nothing like a friendly flirt with someone you've never met before and probably never will, though he does seem quite forthcoming. I'd just say hi.

But if a random stranger talks to me, then I'll most likely respectfully reply, but then try to cut the conversation short if I just don't like them. The alternative is pretty obvious.

when people I don't really know do that to me on facebook, I just delete or ignore them. If someone's going to hit on me based on a profile picture, or even just the fact that I'm a girl and we have friends in common, then they're probably a bit douchey! I mean, why can't they meet a girl in real life?! But if you have 40 mutual friends, then maybe he's just being friendly, so it wouldn't hurt to reply and suss the situation before you decide what to do :P

The last time I replied to someone I didn't know, I got asked if I was a virgin within an hour of knowing the person. Weird.

But I replied and asked if I knew them

Now we await the reply... I hope he's not creepy

That's how I met my (ex) boyfriend He added me and we started talking. But I'd suggest checking out his profile, maybe asking a mutual friend if he's okay.

I get that all the time,i just don't accept unless i can remember who they are haha.No harm in finding out thou.

[xx little miss clumsy xx]

I've got a few random friends request from people I dont know, I just dont accept them. No harm in asking though!

Just see what happens. He might recognize you from a party, but you never were properly introduced. Or, he just might want to get to know you.

I deleted him.
It was more of a Q&A session than a conversation.
He asked how old I was, where I lived if I was single. I mean c'mon, he couldn't have been obvious about what he was after. -_-
The he was like have you got a number.
As if I'm going to give a complete stranger my number.

Anyway, my point. I deleted and blocked him.

You can close the thread thanks for all the advice guys <3
