ikonik Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 I came across this girl I recognize on bumble because she's often on the local news as a commentator and we both have mutual friends. She didn't list her IG or socials on her profile but I was wondering if it's ok to DM her since we have a lot in common. I'm also pretty sure I've talked to her IRL for a bit (not dating related).
d0nnivain Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 Since she is on TV I would not reach out this way. She's on Bumble because she doesn't want men to be able to message her first. See if you can get her number from one of these mutual friends. Or better yet find out from the mutual friend when that person or persons will be hanging out with the meteorologist & then you show up

I'm not that close to our mutual friends to ask a favor like that from her so I just dm'd her, I figured there's nothing to lose.
d0nnivain Posted November 27, 2019 Posted November 27, 2019 Fortune favors the bold but most women will be creeped out by a guy who saw them on Bumble then figured out a way to DM them, mutual acquaintances or not. I hope you mentioned the acquaintance in your message so the woman doesn't think you are a random crazy. 2

A lot of people who are recognizable like that are loathe to use dating apps for this very reason. They really want to keep things separate.
Author ikonik Posted November 27, 2019 Author Posted November 27, 2019 I mentioned that we chatted briefly at an event a while back, not the mutual friend.
Erik30 Posted November 28, 2019 Posted November 28, 2019 If you didn't match with her on Bumble, I wouldn't send a message... sure you have nothing to lose if you do it anyway, but there's a big chance she's not interested
Cersei Posted November 28, 2019 Posted November 28, 2019 OP, you asked a question, got no for an answer but did it anyway. Just curious why you asked the question in the first place?
