Friend Requests

I have been sending friend requests to people in the Getting Started forum but none of them are accepting. I don't understand why those ladies write that they're looking for friends and then when I request they don't accept.

I hate uppity women. It's just the internet people.

    Maybe it's the name are you mad, or the angry face, who knows maybe it's them and not you.

    I can't help you with tips people hate me.

    It's okay to be selective. This ain't POF.

    It's a freaking support site. I'm willing to accept fat friends. We're here to help transform our bodies not to be best buddies and *kitten*.

    maybe they are looking for females friends? (or it could just be they only feel comfortable with other females.)

    maybe you didn't send a message as to why you friend requested them? I deny them all the time without one.

    or your level of fitness intimidates them

    or they could have got tons of requests and haven't got to you yet

    dude... have patience

    Oh c'mon, why does anyone feel the need to sugar coat it. I'm fat. There, I said it. I'M FAT.

    Those that are overweight know they're fat. Quit being so damn sensitive....and now half of MFP is running to go eat their feelings out I bet.

    Maybe the requests didn't go through. That happens a lot. Or yeah, maybe they just don't wanna be your friend. :tongue:

    Really though -- they may be freaked out by your photo because you look young, male, and kinda tough or angry. Maybe they think you are having a laugh at their expense or going to make rude comments. I say this because I occasionally think the same thing about certain FRs I get. Don't take it personally, is my best advice...or send a personal message along with the request.

    Most frequently when I turn down a FR it's because it comes from a young woman with something like "mommieto6angels" as her name and I've never seen her before on the forums. I'd definitely consider friending anyone but I already have a lot of support and others to support on here so I just pass.

    Anyway it is probably NOT personal.

    I dont accept 15 year olds with temporary tattoos from a cereal box.

    I also usually only accept people that lift.

    Thanks, I appreciate the honest answer. I don't know why everyone has to get their panties in a wad.

    Maybe they're uppity and they know you hate them.

    Maybe you just don't come off as being all that fun.

    Maybe you remind them of their violent, abusive ex-boyfriends.

    Just speculating. .

    Are you putting a message in there? People like messages. People also might not like you.

    people on this site have different goals and ways theyre gonna go about them.
    you look like you lift and dont have much (if any) weight to lose. this may come off as intimidating to some or some people might just think youre on a different page than they are.

    keep throwin man....somethin will stick.

    Maybe they'd rather have their eyeballs gouged out with sticks than have a guy who calls them fat and uppity (and whatever other **** you spew) on their FL. Get over yourself.

    This is true. The site blocks all requests from *kitten*.
