    I decline almost all friend requests because I'm a shy weirdo. I don't even respond to the "I'm New" threads, for fear that they will send me a friend request. I'd like to welcome people, but declining FRs makes me sad.

    I'm good with adding pretty much anybody. I seek out only a few people, mostly though with either very similar interests, or similar goals and body types. I'm new though so ask me in a year when I'm burnt and jaded like everything else I've done on the interwebs.

    Well, it isn't because I don't like the people, usually. I just like to keep my list small or I get overwhelmed. It's actually larger than I ever intended, but I hate cutting people even more than I hate declining them.

    It's true...I bet she wants to cut me, but she's too nice.

    Plus there's the whole stigma once you get known as a cutter.

    I generally accept pretty much any FRs - don't get pissy if I don't give you enough attention, you wanted into this freakin' circus. I figure that they will delete me quick enough if I am offensive - oh and am I offensive, Lordy! As far as sending FRs, I rarely send 'em. I reserve that for people who really amuse or entertain me, people I know personally and - very rarely - someone who has inspired me.

    I'm pretty happy with my friend list and enjoy the interactions.

    Wow, I guess I have different thoughts on "friends". I would seriously never turn away someone for any reason, we are all in this together and my thoughts are the more the merrier and if they lose their way while they are one of my friends I would be there to help them get back on track, isn't that what this is all about?


    and there it is. the puppydogs and rainbows i spoke of initially. (it never fails...)
    Ugh. yeah, I'm the same way. We are not all in this together and it is not the more the merrier.

    If I could quote The Big Bang Theory:
    Leonard: The more the merrier.
    Sheldon: That's a false equivalency, more does not equal merry. If there were two thousand people in this apartment, would we be celebrating? No, we'd be suffocating.

    I understand people doing a thread asking for friends. If you're new, you see the other friends request threads, you post one yourself. There's a whole forum for introductions, so well, I sort of figured that's what people did. I did, and I got some friend requests because of that, and the friends I got from it are great ones. Then I interact on the forums more and realize that's not the way I'd necessarily do it at this point, but eh, when I see the people doing the same thing, I know what they're thinking. I don't add people much, but I don't reject much and it all seems to work out. I do prefer to get a message with it, though.

    This isn't a porn site; you should go to one if that's what you are looking for. I suspect they charge and you're looking for free.
