Today, I sent a message on Facebook to a girl I really like. She replied, "..." It took me three hours to realize she'd actually written it. I thought it was just Facebook telling me she was typing. FML

Today, I finally worked up the courage to start a Facebook chat with a guy I really like. It went so well, and he even agreed to hang out sometime. Seconds after we finished our conversation, he changed his status to, "Desperate bitches really piss me off." FML

Well, if she didn't want to wait 5 messages, you could ask her out immediately. Assuming she was worth it.

As a girl I know said to a guy I don't, "there's a difference between being a nice guy and not being able to get a girl.".

I just would have said "that's alright. I wasn't going to ask that in the first place, you're too full of yourself for me, personally."

'friendly'? I'm sorry, but no guys I know just want to be friends when they message random girls on facebook.

Listen, OP, and other guys who plan on asking a girl out on Facebook like he did: I've had a few guys try to talk to me with a "friendly conversation starter" on Facebook. When I indulged in this "friendly conversation," it would either escalate to annoying messages every day or a random, out-of-the-blue "let's hang out some time." I don't blame her for ending it sooner. Try actually becoming friends with a person in real life and eventually asking them out in real life, instead of using Facebook as a dating website. Just some advice.
