So I've been getting called Mr Facebook recently by some of my friends at Uni. I'm pretty happy about it because you know, they seem to think I know everyone and it gives me social proof. For example we went to a house party in the student village, spur of the moment stuff earlier this week, only got an invite through a girl who knew the girl who's birthday it was. Anyways we got there not knowing anyone, but as the party went on/got busy, I started seeing loads of people I recognised and so I said hello. My mates were all watching in some sort of disbelief because it eventually turned out I knew almost half the party, and the only people they knew, I already knew. One of my mates started calling me Mr Facebook, and the name has stuck.
Now I know that knowing all of these people is great, but I'm not convinced yet. I'm still just seen as a 'friend' which is something I'm trying to work on, but I'm just worried that with all these people knowing me as the friendly guy who knows loads and loads of people, I'm going to be seen as the village 'nice guy' which to be fair would suck. As much as I hate to admit it I'm kinda already seen this way in my block, but I know I'm slowly changing all their opinions on nights out having got with a good 8-9 girls recently.
The advice I guess I'm asking for is what to do? Should I keep going with the friendly approach and making friends or do I need to start being more sexual in my approaches and if so how can I do this whilst still being friendly?? The only time I'm sexual is when I'm drunk and normally I've already met the person sober if I see them on a night out.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give
