I'm meeting women at dances, getting only their first name, then on Facebook using the events page, going to the "old events" link at the bottom to go back to the event afterwards and pick them out from the "Yes attending" list a couple days later. (There's an unwritten rule about changing partners every dance, so I'm dancing with about 30 women a night --but since I'm always finding the next partner before the next song begins, I have no time to even ask their phone number)

So I'm trying to figure out how to modify Roosh's Text Communication script to Facebook messaging where you've already been at the same event together.

My thinking is I don't really need to say "Hey jenny it's roosh" because FB already is telling her the message is from me. And asking how she is could kinda look like I'm not even bothering to read her FB page. (Although most of their FB pages are locked up tight and there's nothing to read without friending them)

I'm not friending them, I'm just messaging them without becoming friends yet. Which feels alpha, but now I'm not sure.

I'm trying as the first message "Hi Jenny! It was fun to dance at <Event>. Do you want to hang out later in the week?" and otherwise following his text script --ie to the point and no extraneous crap.

Should I still try to make some sort of intro message exchange to get more buy in before I ask them for something later in the week? Does anyone suggest a FB script for where you've already met the girl and done a group event with them? Or should I be doing the friend/confirm friend thing first as a way of getting buy in from them and putting my privacy settings to some magic setting so I don't have them seeing who else I'm talking with at the same time?

Made the mistake of including an emoticon in one FB message and then read Roosh's comments about leaving emoticons out. Roosh is right. FB takes all emoticons and changes them to ugly yellow pictures that make your message look gay.

Personally I wouldn't open with a request to meet up, I'd butter her up with a cheeky/charming comment of some kind. Something like "I don't normally do this but, I just have to say.. you looked stunning last night", quite forward I know but depending on the girl it can take her aback and work very well, setting you apart from the usual suitor. If you guys had any kind of convo going, ideally you could kick off with a reference to that, preferably a witty one, a little joke about something she mentioned or whatnot.

After that; gauge her response and if positive, ask for the meet up.

Then again I have never read a pick up book in my life and am brand new to this forum so you might want to take what I say with a pinch of salt.

First of all how old are you and the girls you are dancing with? What type of dance? Is alcohol involved?

Most guys on here generally advise against Facebook game. However, its better than nothing if it's the only way of contacting them. Younger girls are pretty much dependent on Facebook and you will probably be more successful with them as opposed to the older crowd. I've had success on Facebook by making a charming comment or two and then getting the number before it turns into a pointless conversation. Try to get the number by the third or fourth message and take it from there.

I'm late 30s, audience is mid 20s and 30s, some older I'm not targetting. And a few college students. Mostly waltz, with some tangos and polka thrown in. Black tie. Not much alcohol. Probably equivalent to a day-time pickup.

Will have to search out these "facebook sucks" threads.
