Bboy100,

As someone who avidly still uses social media (even though it goes semi-against the grain of what is suggested on this website), I uninstalled Snapchat a long time ago and never looked back. That particular one is pretty useless and definitely a waste of time.

Unfortunately, I've seen even some of my very dominant and high-value friends using it. What's tricky about it is the illusion of personalization ("omg they're snapchatting me!") and that gives off false flags of interest (i.e., reactions, not results), especially when the girl gets sexual. Seen my buddies get distracted by some very cute girls, especially those who have boyfriends, who very safely send suggestive Snaps without having to actually give anything substantial for the validation they'r receiving.

Delete it ASAP. It's bad on so many levels.

Snapchat is the best ;)

I love it for the reasons Radeng mentioned above! A buddy of mine does a lot of social circle gaming through snapchat and he's basically cracked whatever code it is to wheeling women through snapchat. I don't fully understand his methods but just look at it as an alternative to texting but with pictures I guess. Usually how a typical scenario will go is my buddy will meet girls, usually at school or parties and then somehow they will add each other on snapchat or whatever. From there, both will snap each other and then they will meet at some social event or party and then sex happens sometimes.

Also, it's a cool thing when girls send you nudes over snapchat haha ;)

Side Story: Me and my buddy were hitting the town one night and this cute girl snapped him while we were pre-drinking saying something "See ya down there. Cheers"., after she saw his story of me and him. It was the girl's birthday but long story short, I ended up slaying this girl and he slayed another girl that he was flirting with through snapchat. The girl was from this report https://boards.girlschase.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10846.

I've decided I'm going to try Snapchat for one month. If it brings me no tangible results, I'll delete it.

I haven't ever actually had one. But I've noticed that moments on Tinder (pretty much the same thing), have done a lot of great things for me. I can think of a lot of girls on Tinder who had initially quit replying to my messages. But after posting an attractive moment, they restarted the conversation, and often invested way more than they ever had- even when I initially messaged them.

Having said that, I hate wasting my time on pointless social media. So I'm definitely going to stick to my cutoff point (1 month) if it doesn't do anything for me.

Thanks for sharing your experiences and advice guys! :)

Ok, so after using Snapchat for a while, I've decided that it is actually at least a little useful in Social Circle. I've noticed that when I post funny or clever stories, it basically keeps me "in touch" with people who otherwise probably would have forgotten about me. Particularly, I've noticed that when I ask for something from someone on my Snapchat who consistently views my stories, they're usually more receptive.

Ex. There have been many cases where I asked people I had met only once or twice if they know of any parties, and they'll usually be neutral at best when replying (sometimes, they won't reply at all). Once I started using Snap, they were usually pretty excited to meet me there, and they sometimes even invited me on their own.

I only just added girls I'm interested in today. I suspect that some of the ones I lost (but are still a part of my loose social circle) will be more receptive to me after a while, and the ones who I haven't escalated with yet will be more receptive to me when I next see them.

In any case, it's not very time consuming at all, and it's pretty fun. So when all is said and done, even if it helps me get ONE girl, I think that would make it worth the trouble.

I changed my mind about snapchat too haha. I've been snapchating a lover of mine who's now oversea. I found it to be a much better way to communicate with her rather than texting. Pictures with texts and innuendos are just much more fun ;) And believe it or not. You can actually set up dates too on snapchat. It makes things more spontaneous and exciting. However, like texting, I wouldn't recommend doing it very often to girls you have not slept with, simply because you don't want to become their snapchat buddies. The goal is still to get them out. I'm suspecting you can use snapchat as some sort of social proof by posting pictures of you and some random girls on your story. It might just work =)
