It isn't flattering, it's insulting. And it makes you look desperate. Women don't like desperate guys any more than guys like desperate women. I get it if you came over to talk to one of us and then realized that you are actually more attracted to the other one. But if you only show your interest after the first woman turns you down, all you're saying to her friend is "I really wanted her, but you'll do." And no woman wants to be the "you'll do" girl. So you'll just be wasting your time (and theirs) and end up striking out twice.
