Facebook flirt?

[Star Witness]

I was at a fundraiser on Saturday night where a cute woman caught my eye. I was hoping to chat with her, but never really got a good opportunity. We only crossed paths once; we passed each other on a stairway and we exchanged a smile.

 

Today while on facebook I discovered that we have a mutual friend who posted a picture with her in it from the event. Hence, I now know her name and could contact her if I choose.

 

So...what do people think?

How do you think a facebook "friend request" would come off?

Any suggestions on what to write?

 

Thanks!

maybe send her a message about the fundraiser and ask how she knows your mutual friend in common

i agree. friend request at this point = creepy. short hello message saying too bad you didn't get a chance to talk at the fundraiser (and noting the mutual friend to appear less stalkerish) = much better!

Don't send her a request, but send a message. Say something along the lines of; " I happen to see you at (name of fundraiser) we didn't get a chance to chat or really meet, but I thought you looked fantastic and today when I checked ( friends name) Fb profile & saw your picture with him/her wanted to pay you a compliment. Have a nice day. Signed Star Witness..
