    I'm not picky my friends list is every where from pervy to shy. They each add a bit of variety to inspire me.


    Mmmmm wondering where I am in that? :love: :smokin: :bigsmile:

    Pervs, unite! :bigsmile:


    I doubt we can keep it secret .. we were made .. they know!!

    Generally, I accept anyone and everyone that requests, I comment, support and interact until someone gives me a good reason not to. I've only ever "unfriended" 2 people. I find that some of my best MFP friends aren't necessarily people that are my same age or in my same situation, and I think that's pretty cool.

    I'm a crappy friend requester. I never know what to say and so what I do say sounds crazy so I'm often denied (doesn't really bother me). For those that request- I dont' like the ones that come blank. I'll deny those. If you leave a message I'll very likely add you. If you seem like someone I just can't gel with or who never interacts - I'll cut you off.

    I pretty much accept all friend requests, unless their profile gives me the impression that we wouldn't be a good match in terms of weight loss philosophies. Which leaves me open to pretty much everyone except those trying to lose 2 lbs per week of vanity weight.

    I've only sent one friend request, and the person accepted me then deactivated a day later. :cry: There are a lot of people I would like to request because I think they are funny or really knowledgeable, but I'm afraid my request would come across like this:

    instead of this:

    Hahaha! I know this feeling so well. :laugh: I've only sent a handful of requests myself... I've been really lucky that a few of my idols sent me one, because I'd never have had the nerve to send them one, and they are fantastic friends!

    When I get a request, I try to figure out why - what we have in common, where we've interacted, and so on - and whether we're likely to get along as friends. If someone's looking for a lot of constant support or is upset by the diet coke and junk food in my diary, or our approaches or goals are really different, it's probably not worth the add for either one of us.
