I thought whatsapp works the other way around. You get the numbers of people you know and chat with them.

I agree.
I am not a member of the troll patrol, but OP, why couldn't you use your screen name?

I didn't use my screenname cuz some of you know who I am and wasn't comfy doing that .
And I don't know why some of you jump to conclusions to think everyone that posts a "different" kind of a topic must be a troll. Seriously ?!?
I'm definitely not a troll , yes I am a more quiet nature and looking to make some new friends and figured this watt sap might be an option to connect. Is that so off??
Why would it be unsafe if it's a kosher heimish ladies wattsap group like any other kinda wattsap group.
Don't see what You pole are jumping at . Sorry!

I thought the whole point of WhatsApp was to connect with your existing connections.
Why not join Facebook and friend people there? I think WhatsApp is a lot more personal and I know that while I'd accept a friend request from a stranger (if it's a friend's friend) on Facebook, I would definitely not WhatsApp with a stranger (even if it's a friend's friend).

There's a big difference between whatsapp and facebook and I would understand if OP is on whatsapp but not on facebook.
Usually these groups are something you hear from someone who heard it from someone and you ask them to add you...

1 - wrong forum
2 - it's whatsapp not wattsap
3 - looking for personal connections with and contact information for women
4 - as amother
5 - with zero background or personal information (like, for example "I moved out of town to a place with no other frum women and I'm desperate for new friendships")
To me this adds up to look more suspicious than a poster asking innocent questions about intimacy.
Now, before OP gets offended or upset, I AM NOT CALLING HER A TROLL, I'm just trying to help her understand that no one would share whatsapp contact information with an anonymous amother.

Um whatsapp is sharing your personal cell number!! I doubt a stranger would want to do that.
I think what you're looking for is a Facebook chat thing, you can find frum women on there as well.

OP, to clarify, when posters say it is unsafe they don't mean whatsapp itself. They mean obtaining numbers of anonymous women here. It is unsafe for me to post my number publically, and it is unsafe for you to contact soneone online claiming to be a youngish bear. You want to know something about the other person first, or start with a sustained online relationship that evolves into a friendship, before exchanging cell phone numbers.

I belong to a group were they send out an inspiring video a day. It doesn't list the numbers of any other members. Not sure how such groups work.
[I strongly suggest against joining a random unknown watsapp group)

Try joining a facebook group.
While I myself don't really enjoy those types of groups, there are tons of them in existence.
Like there's a well known group (which I am not part of) called What's For Supper
And tons of people (again, not me) are on I Don't Cook But I Give Out Recipes

It's a Web based texting platform. You can text regular messages, which is what I use for. Sending pics becomes really simple. You can also hit a button, record a voice message, and hit send and your sister will hear you. Or you can do that with video. You also have the ability to create groups so that you send one message and everybody receives it and everybody receives all the other people's replies to that message as well.
Great for keeping up with family.
Really, nothing bad with it. Except when bad people use it to do bad things.
Just makes things more accessible.

I guess I'll have to see my other options or find someone I know and add me..

And the best part of it is the long distance. As long as you have internet connection, you can text and call someone long distance for free.
