So tired of Snapchat...

[FlexpertHamilton]

So many girls I talk to online want to talk on Snapchat, and 100% of the time after tell them I don't have one, they go radio silent, even if they displayed high interest early on.

I don't normally like to make threads complaining about something without offering any solution, but I really am at a loss; I think social media is cancer (especially Snapchat) and I refuse to use it just increase my success with women.

Anyone else relate to this? You could argue that they're attention whoring just like ones who farm for IG followers, but a lot of them genuinely seem to think Snapchat is the only way to communicate with someone. Texting is bad enough already but I can't think of a more absymal way to communicate with someone.

Nothing wrong with how you are. I feel the same way but I actually have Snapchat. If I ask a girl for her number and she counters with Snapchat or Instagram, I tell her I'm only interested in there number. Sometimes they give the number and sometimes they don't. I'm also not afraid to lose a prospect over it. If there interest level is high enough, they will give the number out. Do you think they would even bring up Snapchat if Channing Tatum asked for the number?

Yeah, I'm not saying it happens with most girls, but it's happening more and more often. I can't shake the feeling that not having a SC/IG/etc puts you at a serious disadvantage by potentially making you look lower value or being inflexible.

Furthermore I honestly cannot think of a single instance where I asked for a girls number, she insisted on snapchat, then ended up actually giving her number in the end. Even high interest girls (sending first message, chasing, complimenting, etc) who ask for my snapchat go silent after I ask for their number instead.

They might possibly see it as lower value. You could just say you have but you want there number. I have SC and IG but I rarely use them. It has also been happening to me more and more.

Most won't give out the number even if you say that you only want that. I recently had a girl at a club give me her number because I refused her SC. But, it's pretty rare.

It sucks that it's turning into what it is nowadays but there isn't much we can do. We just need to hold our ground and not give into that crap. Other men have ruined things for us through there thirst. These girls are used to guys going along with accepting Snapchat instead of the number. If her interest level is truly high, then she will give you her number.

I had heard a theory recently that because women are mostly interacting with simp/soyboy types all the time, they've come to expect certain behaviors of men, and it doesn't even occur them that alternative behaviors from men can exist. It makes sense to me.

I think it's a combination of two things:
1. Women who are just looking for attention/orbiters and are used to simps accepting whatever form of communication method she offers (just like you said).
2. Snapchat is more anonymous and easier to block you on if and when she decides she's had enough

If a girl is insisting on Snapchat, it's because she's running some kind of hustle over there.

2 is dumb...I don't think people realize how easy it is to block a number.

How so?

Depends on the age of woman you're after. Snapchat/IG is the new way of exchanging contact info. However the actuality is it's an extra step to getting a phone number. With that said, I 100% don't do the Snapchat/IG exchange. You'll just be lost in the shuffle of other guys/simps. If she's not interested enough to give me her phone number, I'll assume low IL and move on.

Stop inflating women's egos by becoming a follower.

They want to create the illusion they are thirsted for

She wants you to be another orbiter, she can very easly talk to 25 guys at the same time on snapchat by sending multi messages.

Men are sending women money on Snapchat. I imagine that these women are either going to start begging for money or offering pictures of themselves in exchange for cash.

 

[DonJuanjr]

Do you think they would...if Channing Tatum asked for the number?

I think you should put this as a signature haha.

I think Snapchat has its uses. Some women feel more comfortable sending nudes and stuff (then giving out their number) from it as it alerts when you screenshot. I don't think its a bad tool to have but you have to be wary of becoming an orbiter on it.

I genuinely have zero interest in nudes or sexting, I don't think they can even comprehend that though.

Actually you're wrong, for some reason women love to block men on snapchat.

My 'online' skin has gotten a lot thicker over the last few months.
I'm still completely baffled as to why girls do things like block you mid way through a conversation that they seem to be enjoying etc.
One girl asked me to add her on snap chat (I deleted teh app after 1 day) and sent me a pic of her in a bra. I don't know much about snapchat, but I assumed this meant I had to reply with my own pic, so I sent a pick of my 6 pack.
She blocked me about 2 minute later, lol. I was confused and annoyed, but now I just expect weird **** like this on things like snapchat, tinder, POF etc etc.
On tinder, a while ago a girl messaged me first (which never haappens to me) nad gave me an outrught compliment. Like....a pickup line! I gave her one back and after a very brief chat suggested maybe meeting up, and then she unmatched me!
Nobody can understand the female mind!!
The only positive is that it really doesn't bother me much anymore when girls block me and stuff. I almost expect it now! Get thicker skin. Don't take too personally. They're all ****ed in the head

I absolutely refuse to get snapchat. I had multiple female friends try to get me on it, but I just don't see the point of it outside of being able to send/recieve nudes without them being sniped for revenge porn.

Honestly, it's a great way to weed out low interest/low value women. If they don't want to engage in person, it's next time.

I agree that social media is cancer except maybe for instagram. Yes women wh0re themselves out for attention on IG, but that's the problem of thirsty men whipping out their like every time the see a pair of hot tits or ass. Outside of hoes, IG is pretty tame if you follow hastags that actually interest you.

I still think IG is cancer because its yet another platform to get people addicted to their devices, plus it contributes to the destruction of our attention spans by providing quick squirts of dopamine from the mindless scrolling and seeking of unseen content. By this definition, youtube, reddit, and all porn sites are cancer too (although I still use youtube reluctantly).

I've never had this issue with Snapchat. I have a minimal Instagram presence. I don't add women on my social networks and they don't add me. Simple.

Exactly^^^^

Snapchat is just a buffer to filer out guys, sure if you live a interesting live you can bag a woman but usually 90% don't care if a chick is over 25 asking me for snapchat I would decline if she is younger sure, but it's another buffer
