Hey, I decided to make this post and get help after this happening a second time:

Girl I meet in class/just generally on campus seems interested in me, texts are going good, etc etc and then she'll find my Instagram profile or something and request to follow and the interest will start to die from there.

This particularly happens with the hotter girls and I want it to stop.

I figure the problem is they'll be into me and think I'm a cool guy and then once they see I don't have girls commenting on my pictures (or even that I don't really have many pictures with girls or even pictures at all) they start to think 'wait maybe this guy isnt cool, he seems like a loser'


I do have a decent social life, I goto parties and stuff and hangout with friends and could have decent predilection through social media but I feel weird taking pictures. I have a few up, but mostly just of me and my closest friend .

Those guys who take pictures with girls (not when girls take pictures of them) and post it on social media, how do they not feel awkward as a man saying 'let's take a selfie'.


What do you do? Do you take selfies/pictures? How do you feel about Instagram/social media?

Like you, for my Facebook, I'm not fond of taking pictures myself since I am not self-focused but rather people-focused and idea-focused. I have very few pictures of myself. I guess we're the same in this aspect.

To remedy your situation, here's what I do:

This second semester, I usually invite a group of girls that I keep in the friendzone (my social proofing strategy) for some cheap refreshments. I spend the equivalent of some US $5 for five of us (4 girls and me). Since these girls love to take selfies and groupies, they would naturally take pictures of me with them.

Easy-peasy. The magic words are:"Hey girls, let's go!"

One of these girls even tell me whom she knows as down-to-fuck and has set me up for a hook up with a few girls already. So your $5 really pays off in the short run if you manage to have a friend like her.

Some things not making sense here.

1. This has only happened two times
2. Out of the two times, this usually happens with hotter girls

The math just seems really off. Possibly, what you think is the problem isn't really the problem. It's highly unusual for a woman to be attracted to you, enjoy speaking with you, and then put in the effort to finding you on social media to disqualify you for not enough girls liking your pictures.

I have to ask, since you say the girls like you, what have they said when you expressed meeting up?

Speed the process up. I dunno why you bother texting back and forth and waiting for her to follow you on social media instead of pitching a meet and trying to bang her.

They should learn to use their mobile phones instead of sitting down at home using their computers to surf the internet.

People disagree with me all the time on this, but this is my view: Fuck social media sarging, it's a waste of time. Cut yourself off from social media (or at least posting etc) for two weeks. If a girl wants to talk to you then, then she actually has to talk to you, and vice versa. As the above cartoon so artistically demonstrates, nothing says loser like someone who lives their life through facebook or whatever.

And who knows, maybe these girls will come up to you annoyed you haven't accepted their request or whatever, and all of sudden it's like they're pursuing you for a change.

Yeah I actually use Facebook legit for being social with my life.

Not to 'DHV' to girls.

I like to keep an eye on my friends and family without having to request for them privately to catch up and to send me pics one by one

OP you are worrying too much, you act like this girls gonna sit down and spend 30 minutes going through everyone of your pictures and comments like some stalker.

social media is overrated, but if your IG doesn't have any DHV or Amog type stuff, that means YOU AS A PERSON need to improve. i see profiles all the time of guys who just post pictures of their weed, booze and food and their boring AFC lives. how lame, go out and do some cool shit like ride jet skis or surf or take a bunch of homegirls to VIP club and get some cool pics, etc. you need to improve your own life and then you won't give a shit about what some girl thinks of your IG or Facebook.

Facebook is required for classwork involving groups at least in my uni. It's a place where we upload group files (documents, spreadsheets, presentations, videos), pictures of group activities, and post updates of group projects.

It's 2015. People who don't use Facebook one way or the other are limiting their options on how they interact with people.

As for sarging though, nothing beats face-to-face in-person sarging. Social media along with texting should serve as support to your face-to-face sarging; not your main modus operandi.

Even though online gaming is like my speciality (as I'd imagine it is for every guy) it's honestly not as good as it used to be. Disagree all you want with the whole "Oh, please! Look at all the new shit! Tinder, Snapchat, SPAM, Kik, Facebook, Twitter... everything you could dream of, all from your computer!" but honestly, every guy is doing it. When I was like 17, you could just put a girl in your MSN name with a wink either side of it (like a faggot) and firstly she'd be into you, secondly other girls would want to know who she is and they'd like you... because 99% of guys would just pop up like "u got a cam?" lol. Oh, and the girls were a lot more childish back then, I suppose that comes into it. But guys aren't as clueless as they used to be, they actually know how to flirt online but not in person. The point that I'm trying to make is that you should be the opposite; when you're online, don't even mention sex or anything like that at all. Literally use it as a way to arrange dates, nothing more. Don't even keep it online long enough for there to be a sticking point.

Dude, delete that shit. Problem solved.

You're a grown ass man. You don't have time for petty bullshit like social media. You're busy.
