What makes you a horrible MFP friend?

(when people post about lifting and working out it makes zero sense to me - like, they might as well be speaking Tagalog)0

I accept requests but I hardly look at my feed anymore.0

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.
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.
off topic but nothing creeps me out more than a stranger from the internet calling me "babe"...like, it makes my skin crawl.
So I'm a bad MFP friend because I will take you off my FL if you call me "babe"1 -

Hey babe you got kik?5 -
Ok so just to be random and different as it seems all of you pretty much know each other, I'll throw something into the works because none of you know me lol. However posting in the why I'm a bad MFP friend thread might not be the best way to get you to know me, but meh, fluff it!
-I log in, but I never ever look at anything or comment or like anything on the weekends, and I only login to keep my login streak alive - I only interact when I'm at work
-I quit logging and don't log - and my diary is set to private
-I didn't even know there was a hump day pic thing going on here until now - 'nough said lol, but now that I do know, I wouldn't post butt pics anyway
-I rarely comment on anything unless it strikes me in some way, however I'm pretty generous on the likes
-I'm like a husband, who gives his wife flowers only on special occasions - when it comes to motivating, it's got to be a pretty big milestone...I don't daily encourage, even though I should - it takes too much time to follow everyone's life when I have a busy life of my own
There's probably more reasons, but these are just a few to give you an idea....I saw a comment about someone starting a why you'd be a good friend thread? Someone should do that - that would be fun too!2 -

For some reason this post makes me a wee bit sad tho. Maybe I'm hormonal today.

Div you embarrass me, I'll add to your horrible MFP friend qualities ...but I still luvz ya!0 -
I never check MFP over the weekend or holidays. Ever.
Sometimes I ignore PM's because I get busy and just can't reply to all of them.
I'll take you off my FL if you never interact with me.0 -
Because if you aren't willing to do what is needed to get into the shape you say you want to get into, I can't help you.0

"What makes you a horrible MFP friend?"
errr.... how much bandwidth do we have to work with here?1 -
1) I use endearments all the time.
2) My diary is private.
3) I can go from uncommunicative to having verbal diarrhoea and back again, for months on end.
4) I'd rather talk about your pets than your children.
5) I'll get tipsy and post links to super sappy love songs.1 -
I used to be okay at it, but then I got in the unshakable funk. Now I don't comment or spread love or log *kitten* even though I dig everyone on my list and think they're all absolute rockstars. Trying to work my way back.0
-
I don't log my food, and I ask for boobie pics.
and i may send out unsolicited c*ck pics.....0 -

-Logging is too much effort these days
-The only posts from me are when I write a new blog, which is usually depressing word vomit about my workouts sucking and all the things wrong with my body
-I got rid of all my sexy swimsuit pics a while ago, and there's no retaking them because my body just ain't that phat anymore
-My husband is my only friend, and I can't be bothered to tell him good job about anything despite MFP prompting me to0 -

I didnt even know you can have friends, 1 month in and have lost 12 pds of pure fat. Love the app and its more addicting than social media, i cant wait to workout and lose more cals, or have that super tasty low calorie meal to fit within my calorific count. But if theres a forum someone can refer me to where you can find people that push/otivate each other that would be awesome!0

If you don't interact with me I will feel bad about cutting you so I probably won't for awhile cuz I'm too sensitive
I care about people so I will remember what you write in your updates and probably wonder about you at some point and hope you are ok if you are going thru troubles ....that's annoying to people who usually don't give a crap
^^ Same!

@LiftingLady5 reminds me of something that happened to me when I first starting using this site 2 years ago. I came across a guy in the formus who was from my hometown (didn't live there anymore) and my 'hood is tiny so I thought it was pretty cool. We added each other as friends and would talk from time to time, but I didn't utilize the site so much back then - other than logging my food in and the occasional visit to the General Diet Questions section of the forums. I went to message him one day because I ran into someone in town that knew him and I saw that he removed me from his friends list. So, me being the obnoxious person I am, messaged him and asked him why and he told me that he had to remove me because I never posted to his wall. I was like "WTF?!"
At the time, I was a newbie and didn't really use the site as a social networking tool, and really only used it to help me lose weight and get information on diet, nutrition, etc.0 -
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)
What makes you a crappy MFP friend?
Totally these and I have a several of my own.
- I have a potty mouth
- I rarely post fitness related things (oh wait...I never do)
- If you post an asspic as your profile on Wednesday I will more than likely delete you, unless you've wowed me in some way.
- lastly, not everyone understands or cares for my sarcasm *shrugs*1 -
I disappear for a few days when I get busy
Make sarcastic remarks whenever I feel like it
Hardly ever log my food
Workout and don't tell anybody about it.
Hardly ever write statuses
But I do post Flex Friday pics every once in a while, so I've got that going for me.1 -
I don't really read most status updates. But get a little annoyed when I only get one like when I exercise.0
-
Most of ye sound like great MFP friends actually
1 -
I can't remember the last time I logged a meal
I make up stupid names for my exercises
I'm overly sarcastic and can be blunt
I delete people frequently because I get annoyed very easily
I make up nicknames for people because I can't be bothered learning their real name
I'm really not a good MFPal1 -
I don't speak to any of my friends and barely like any of their stuff. I also haven't responded to any messages since day 2 but that's mostly because half of my message were from the same weird dude trying to hit on me at 3am.0
-
- i swear like a sailor
- i dont like diary entries
- i rarely like days logged, unless its truly an amazing number
- i wont go to your wall and read it
- if whatever you post isnt at the top of my feed, its unlikely ill ever see it (i have one friend i make an exception for, cause hes funny as *kitten*)
- ill never remember your real name
- ill never care about your real name
- i dont post much usually, and it may or may not be diet or fitness related
- if i dont like how you do things, ill unfriend you
- then ill talk about you
- if you irritate me, ill unfriend you
- then ill talk about you
