Seriously though, I was intrigued enough to note the following article, after reading your blog entry: http://www.60secondscience.com/archive/science-technology-news/your-sexy-online-friends-make.php
Is it simply just an extension of the ‘environment’ argument when making oneself attractive? Could this man be using you as ‘plumage’ of sorts?

On the contrary, your time is sufficiently flexible for you to be able to peruse a blog…

I’m not making a statement about friendliness, I’m making a statement about networking. Networking is not about busom buddies, forging everlasting friendships or having the expectation that the ‘friend’ will engage in a sex orgy with you at some stage.

The point is that I know this individual, yet people are ridiculously defensive in their behaviour – even using cottonwool monikers such as ‘Anonymous’…and whom comment without having a Facebook entry at all anyway.

Well its an admirable sentiment that we should all be more friendly and open to people, but my time is finite as it is! Unless I know who you are I don’t think I will be adding you to my face book.

However some people get lucky K.

Ha ha! I had the reverse – a guy (fellow skeptic and with several friends in common) added me as a friend. I accepted, but didn’t know who he was, but assumed he went by a forum name or some such. But my sister then informs me that he also added her…hmmm. She doesn’t know many people in skeptic circles and doesn’t participate in any forums.

So I dropped him a really friendly version of the sort of message you had from the rude bloke, except mine said

“Facebook is prompting me to tell it how I know you but I confess I have no idea, other than we clearly know several of the same people and both move in mysterious skeptic circles.

I say mysterious, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. More like ‘geeky’.”

I thought that was chirpy and friendly but he never replied

Good text. But keep on approaching people, Ms Bitch, that’s what I do. Some bad apples will not appreciate it, but who cares about them? My experience is this: Some/many people seem to have a too rosy image of their own importance. Like Freddie Mercury said, ‘This is your life, don’t play hard to get…’
