New Post: Send a follow request

Hello,

working in a Twitter app someone asked me the following:

I can send a direct message to someone, but only if the person is following you. If the person is not following you, you should send him a "follow request" so that person follows you and then, you can send them the direct message.

It's possible to do this (something in the Tweetinvi API that do the same as if I go to Twitter and click on the "follow" button of someone I don't follow yet, so I can open the direct message communication channel? (If not, please tell me why).

This is considering you can't establish direct message with someone who doesn't follow you, unless they have a very particular option of their account configured (Recieve direct message from people I don't follow).
Thanks.
