Random Correspondence

It's that weird text message you get, the random Facebook message or even the spontaneous tweet... Be it an unknown user with who it is first time contact (I had a message this week from someone who said "thanks for accepting my friend request and by the way you are very pretty") or the blast from the past (I had an old friend contact me to pass on the phone number of an old boyfriend who had ditched Facebook) they really are rather awkward and uncomfortable for the most part...
How do you respond? And what kind of correspondence is more intimate than others..? For me now, text seems quite personal and direct-not so much the casual catch up convo I would think...? And the random compliments I guess you would call them, how else can you reply other than "no prob, thanks" ?????
