On insta

Especially assuming they aren't following you back or whatever. Just a random super hot 18 year old who lives in your area for example

I decided to give it a go a few times thinking 'well, nothing to lose!' and even though my sample size is very small (5 girls) each one is either being left on seen and ignored, blocked, or just a comment like 'go away', 'ewww' etc

And it's not like i'm writing some weird sexual opener or anything. Just taken some tips from PUA articles about sliding into DM's and making comment on their profile, a comment on their story, asking a question or a little push pull compliment etc etc

Someone told me that unless you are stupidly handsome then it's basically a waste of time and not to do it.

Any input?

I'm personally one for cold approach (where, if i'm honest and in my experience, I feel like the rules are still the same lol) but during lockdown, am exploring other avenues
