I'm new to talking to people online; do you talk to people first then send a friend request or do you first send a friend request and then talk to them?

No. BUt just because someone has accepted your frined request don't assume they'll respond to messages.

And don't assume just because someone sends you a friend request that you accept, that they'll message you.

And don't assume that everyone wants to be you friend without a brief introduction.

I sometimes send a friend request without saying anything first. Just don't assume that someone will actually TALK to you at all if they accept...

I like when people add me as a friend and then send me a private message. Too bad hardly anyone does. lmao.

I rarely send out friend requests but get them all the time. Most of the people never message me before or even after sending them, but whatever. I'd say it's not necessary to message people first, and that the act of sending/receiving the friend request can easily act as an ice breaker.
