And I mean like, maybe you go to a certain pub all the time, see the same guy there, and become friend-friends. Or maybe it’s a new love interest.
Do you go for a phone #? a social media like instagram? snapchat? other?
I’m old school so I try for a phone #. I do it with a twist: I give out my google voice only until I know someone (handy to provide to businesses also). Buuut people seem to freak out about phone # exchange today.
So I tried Instagram, but it seems kludgey for this purposes. The messaging part of it is so small/hidden, you have to pay attention and friend people back, it’s not really a messaging-first app.

What seems the easiest way (both socially and human nature wise) for staying in contact?
