Has anyone ever been contacted by a woman they didn't know on LinkedIn to connect?
I received a connection from a woman who worked at the same company I did. However, we didn't work at the company at the same time. Looking at her photo, I knew I never met her. She's a very memorable looking woman. So, I thought maybe she's networking. What harm can a connection on LinkedIn do?
I forgot about it and almost two months later, she's asking me about my reading list on LinkedIn. We chat a little and clearly she likes me and is interested. She even said she liked my LinkedIn photo.
Are women looking for men on LinkedIn? I guess it's instant social proof, the woman can look for guys who know some of her connections. The woman knows the guy had to go through a background check and drug screen, the same she had to for the company. She also knows the the guy is a stable earner having access to his career info. Is this normal for women these days? In my wildest dreams, I never thought of a women using LinkedIn to try and get to know me.
On a side note, and I'm not making this up, apparently before she had a "corporate job", when she was younger she did part-time swim suite and lingerie modeling (not the mainstream boring catalog, the sexy catalog).
I just never thought of LinkedIn as a place where you're minding your own business and a former part-time model starts making online moves on you. It's a strange world indeed.
And yes I am married and shouldn't be chatting with her. But a former part-time model, I'm afraid curiosity is getting the better of me. 5String is going to so chew me out.
