[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP finding someone on FB or other social media is fine if you met at a bar or party and didn't exchange information. But if he has your number already finding and messaging him, especially so soon, is too much.[/quote]

[b]I'd likely block someone who did this.  [/b]In the future, OP, ask your male friends what they would think and/or do.  When sharing/swapping dating stories - I've heard many of my male friends laugh or be mildly freaked out by the women who found them on social media and contacted them.  With that being said, I did end up texting a guy whose number I had and hadn't heard from after a second date just to say "thanks, had a good time and would love to go to a baseball game if up for it".  Did hear back and now married and with a kid.  [/quote]
How old are you? It's not a knock on you, but younger people use social media a bit differently and friending or messaging someone you met out and had a good conversation with is not totally out of line.[/quote]

Young enough to still be wary of anyone who went through the time to find me online and messaging me if I hadn't reached out to him.  Granted ghosting is pretty awful and have hated it when it happened to me. But if I am "ghosting" and trying to avoid a conversation, I'd be freaked out if someone found me on Facebook and sent me a message out of the blue.  Of course I don't even use my full name so they would have to do some serious digging.

What I do know is that good or interested guys tend to reach out pretty quickly even if a simple "hope you got home safe/got your friends home safe" or "looking forward to picking up where we left off".  And sometimes...it's just one of those things with no explanation and time to shrug it off and move on to the next.  Enjoy this time - truly![/quote]
