I think it'd be wise if you guys stopped posting women's pictures from profiles here, it's getting out of hand. Perhaps it should be put into the section rules.
As for me, I don't message anyone.

He was, well let's put it this way, not the dream of many women.
But he was intelligent and a great conversationalist, he knew what to say to women.
He always had model-looking girlfriends because as he said, he knew exactly that most guys would not even try to talk to talk to very attractive women and they wouldn't realise how these women were actually starved for a REAL connection=not guys who are only interested in their looks!!
Everybody liked him as he made them feel special.
Although I have to add this was about 18-20 years ago, things changed but I don't think the principle did.
As you said, he knew how to talk to them and was a great conversationalist. It's not just that he talked to them. Also I might add that there was probably an omitted "charming" when they said they wanted a great connection, they wanted a charming guy with a great connection.
If someone is not like your friend and has no other attractive qualities, you're basically telling them to go into a gunfight unarmed imho.
