What makes you a horrible MFP friend?
I want to give out a warning to some of the ones who friend request me....I'm not as cool as you think I am.
Reasons why I'm not a good Pal:
-I suck at the wall love thing. I don't have enough synonyms for "Sweets", "Babe", "Sugar", and "Hun" in my vocabulary
-I don't post Hump Day booty pics
-I don't regularly log my meals, and if I do, the diary is on private. Because I don't want you seeing I ate cookie butter by the spoonful
-Some of my posts aren't fitness related
-I may offend some with random bouts of cursing (Disclaimer is clearly in my profile though)

I hardly log and don't encourage friends that haven't logged on in days. I'm mostly here for the forums tbh.2

I only friend you to look at your hump day booty pics2

What's today??0

-I don't post booty pics, those are reserved for the specials
-I post songs you probably won't like daily.
- I am clumsy and post things I meant to put elsewhere.
- I'm odd.
- I won't send you noodz just because you compliment me.
- I forget important details sometimes, like your name.
I so wish you had to put your name somewhere on your profile. I suck with names! We can be friends for 400 days (my current log in streak) and the only time I saw your name was day 1 that we became friends.
I'm Melody btw.....no one ever calls me that though. At least Mel is in my username.1 -
I'm really trying to be a good friend and be encouraging. I have to face it, nothing I say sounds inspirational. I'm not a motivating person. I've lost weight because I get up and make myself do it. I do like seeing others stuff.0
-
friends what are those...0
-
I can go for months at a time and not encourage/like/comment my friends.
To be honest it is kind of time consuming and exhausting sometimes.1 -
I rarely comment or like on status that aren't fitness related. I don't write on walls and I don't flirt. I'm horrible I tell you2

-I very rarely post pics and if I do you're still only getting the face (sorry hump day)
-My diary is private as well
-I almost always forget to close my diary so I rarely have the "under calorie goal" announcement
-I don't always respond to PMs in a timely manner
-I will comment on your status and forget to check back so I may not see your reply lol
I have no idea why we aren't friends yet.3 -
Sometimes I don't read your status and just Like it for no very good reason.
I try to stay weary if it's a sad post though
Sometimes a paragraph is too much for my little head to read2 -
I didn't even know you could have friends on this app! I just found this section. So that makes me horrible by default.1
-
I'm only replying to this because i'm in a boring as batshit staff training thing for some stupid site I already know how to use AND you Melody - are one of my friends.
I make a shitful friend because I:
*say the EFF word a LOT
* whinge and moan and complain when things are not optimal in my life
* rarely leave wall love on friend's walls (but I do 'LIKE' a lot of stuff)
* don't post pictures of my butt (but sometimes do of other stuff like my gut)
* often write enormously long updates that no-one can get through reading without having a bowl of popcorn to keep them busy. They go off on tangents too.
* on days like this when I am bored at work stuff I post a lot because I have nothing else to do
But - I do leave comments sometimes1 -
I'm mostly active on days where women are more inclined to show their butts or cleav.0

Your awesomeness is a little intimidating! I wanted to be your friend long before it happened lol.

I pat myself on the back for having a majority of MFP's most awesome on my Friends list. I don't think I'm too horrible because most of you have stuck with me for quite awhile now. Feel free to tell me how I can do better unless it includes anything to do with exercise and or food logging

You have these creepo dudes posting weird status messages like...
"Hey baby have a lovely day"
"Good morning baby"
"Have a wonderful day sweetheart"
"Sending you warm wishes honey"
"Happy Thursday babe"
First, what the fudge.
Second, are these dudes this whacked out?!
Do the women like these messages?! I mean daily. Every day. One dude goes good morning baby every effing day. He has been persistent for a couple weeks or more.
Maybe they're a couple irl? I hate being called pet names though by someone I don't even know, so he'd definitely be deleted.1 -
I disappear for ages.
I'm kind of a dick that way.
Real life get's in the way A LOT1 -
I barely interact with humans in real life if I don't need to...and now you want me to do it somewhere else?1
-
I suck at the wall love
My job is awesome and I post pics of whales
I'm bad at replying to private messages
I post way to many workout related pics, mostly pole fitness so my profile is NSFW
0 -
I don't post Hump Day pics
I have zero tolerance for TMI tuesday or wednesday or whateverthe*kitten* day it is
I rarely look at my wall so if you post some wall love on there I never see it
only 5% of my posts are about actual fitness stuff
I don't lift, I don't care about lifting and I don't want to know about your lifting.
If you send me a creepy message, be prepared for me to share it with everyone on the Singles Thread

Patiently awaiting the what makes you an Awesome MFP friend thread

I am a horrible friend because I get bored and will play MFP Survivor with my friends list and I don't care how good of a friend you think we are if you have not won an immunity challenge there is no saves if you are voted off the island.3

It's worse on the guys' walls. I have a very dear mfp friend...ok he's my mfp bestie. His wall used to be so ridiculous. I would go on there and make comments about it. I'm sure I pissed off a ton of his female friends.
Some people are so thirsty.3
