I get one friend request on Facebook probably around every 2 months from Random women I don’t know, these are local women to me. I haven’t written that I’m single on my page, My page is private, just photos and few travel pictures, I once met this women in hospital and she started stalking me, I had to tell her I was gay (I’m asexual) to make her understand I wasn’t available but she kept on pestering me and being flirty… She was BPD so was difficult at the time.
Is it normal for men to get random friends requests from women? I understand maybe Eastern European women from poor countries but not local women.
Slightly more seriously, it is normal for a man who lives a particular lifestyle. I suspect that is not applicable to you. So far as social media on the Web goes, I expect it to be a product of sophisticated advertisment algorithms.
If not, then consider that some women like guys that treat them coldly or appear so. Finally, you might simply have a pretty face. From my limited experience, men can’t know what kind of male face women honestly find attractive.
We have a young new staff member at my supported living house from Southern Ireland and she says she gets alot of friends request from Indian men wanting to merry her.
I would not trust it. I dont think any woman i know would send random friends requests. But I kicked out all social media before, now also dating apps, so maybe im too distrustful at the moment. You just dont know what she wants though…might be innocent, but also money, attention, whatever.
