I thought the primary purpose of LinkedIn was to network and create professional relationships. I must admit that LinkedIn has changed recently with posts similar to what is commonly seen on Face Book. LinkedIn was established on for the sole purpose of professional networking and employer’s posting open positions. I know that the bible states “A man that finds a wife finds a good thing,” (Proverbs 18:22) but I am not looking for a pickup on LinkedIn. ” My profile states that I am actively looking for an administrative/legal assistant opportunity. He started the email by telling me “What a cute smile” I have on my profile and how “beautiful” I am and how “intriguing” I am to everyone who looks at my profile, and he just couldn’t resist the opportunity to say hello. Well, my opportunity finally came! I woke up one Sunday morning and low-and-be whole I received a personal email from someone on LinkedIn.

I agreed with them within myself and thought to myself what would I do if I were approached by someone on LinkedIn looking for a date. The ladies gave the dudes a good tongue-lashing and asked them to please not look for women/dates on LinkedIn since it is not the platform for dating. After all, this is LinkedIn! They went on to explain that LinkedIn is not the place for looking for dates and even went so far to state that it is unethical. for having me as a guest contributor, as well as to my co-guest Jeffrey Gardere, Ph.D.AS JAMES BROWN WOULD SAY: PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!Ī couple of months ago I was on LinkedIn looking for a job and came across a post from a couple of ladies stating they were approached by dudes looking for dates.

Although social media can have benefits, it can be quite dangerous for those who crave social validation, lack developmental maturity and critical thinking skills, all common in adolescence, as the pre-frontal cortex of the brain is not fully developed until the mid-twenties. Extremely disturbing Tik Tok challenge called 'National Rape Day' was scheduled for today.

Linkedin is not a dating site
