I started talking to this girl on OK Cupid a couple weeks ago and we talked alot. We finally traded numbers and started texting back and forth. We went to different colleges but we're both home now for the summer and we live about 45 minutes from each other. Anyway I asked her out and she said she was busy that night but she would be free next week. Should I friend her on facebook now or wait it out until after the first date or even later? It doesn't make much difference to me but I'm wondering what the normal thing to do is. Thanks for your help!
Sending a FB friend request to a girl from OKC?

Keep girls off FB. If they friend request you, sure, you don't want to be awkward about it, but in general it's not a good idea to have "plates" on facebook. It just opens you up for obsessively scanning their profile, maybe getting jealous, and ultimately getting oneitis.

Sending her a friend request out of the blue would come off as (1) creepy (2) needy (3) stalker-ish
Facebook can only hurt you. Women quickly size you up based on your profile and unless it's rock solid with lots of exciting pictures, friends commenting, girls chasing you, etc.. she'll probably think less of you.
I've added plenty of girls to FB without it affecting the courtship, but I've also added enough and never heard from them again or their interest tanked. Risk it if you dare...
