    Well, heck I feel pretty much like a floosy. I had posted on my profile to please send a message with your request, but I dont automatically decline them for not having one. Sometimes I try and find out why they sent me one, but other than that I just accept and congratulate them on their accomplishments. I always send a request with a message though. I think that is the best part of getting requests, is seeing why.

    I may go through a clean-up of my friends list, but I generally am pretty ok with who ever is on my friends list. Those without activity for several weeks or months I will send a message to, but otherwise It doesnt really bother me who is on and who isnt. I do have my favorites on my friends list though haha.

    I've received many with no notes and when I checked the person out they had no replies to threads or mutual friends. I don't really want to be a part of someone’s collection. <shivers>
    Now, if they add a note I’m more likely to accept, but not always. Sometimes I just get the creeper vibe and the moment you reply back to them the convo starts… and I really don’t’ want to start that with a creeper.
    So, be honest, did you say something creepy in your friend request? ;)

    Agreed. I prefer someone to give me a note telling me why they'd like to get to know me more or why they picked me out of all the others they could have to send a request too. It's nice to have things in common!

    On another note,, if someone is inspired by something I say in a post and wants to be a support to me and feels like I can support them I'm happy to be their friend! I think it's wonderful to know so many people are going through some of the same things I am and it actually keeps me going if I'm able to help other too!

    if someone were to ignore my request then I likely wouldn't have gotten a lot out of that connection anyway. Likewise they already have what they need in their group of friends and are extended as far as they can. I wouldn't take it personally. There's plenty of Pals in the sea of 1's and 0's.

    I generally accept, but prefer a note with a request. I dont accept if the person is creepy which is rare that I get creepy requests. And if that person does not interact with me (especially since they sent me the request), I will pretty much delete that person. Also...... I state in my profile that I am really nice so I am pretty sure that scares most people away lol :)

    I don't have the time to consider the feelings of everyone who sends me FRs. In fact, you should be more considerate of my time and be ok with being ignored by me.

    Please see my older posts is this thread... Sarcasm does not go over well on the interwebs. Maybe someone should create a sarcasm emoticon?

    I accept 'em all but do appreciate a message with them. I tend to remember those with messages better as my friend's list is getting large.

    Unrequited. Good grief.

    Thank the lord. I was beginning to lose my faith in humanity, and feel a wee bit mean for wanting to post this exact message.

    haha

    yes maybe... but possibly something that can't be misconstrued to mean anything else so it's the exact opposite of sarcasm.. what am I saying? This would just take the fun out of the internet

    Please do not mistake his winking smiley as his sarcasm indicator. That's the "I'm being a passive-aggressive little baby and including a smiley so I won't appear insulting" use of that smiley.

    Hence the need for a sarcasm emoticon... or maybe we can just follow all sarcasm up with a keyboard spasm? kfhakljfhdkl cfhksfhq

    Can we just fix the title to "Unrequited" friend requests? Pretty Please???? :flowerforyou:

    Also, you didn't need a whole thread to complain about me declining you. You could have sent a PM.
