    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.

    Err....can't..unless you know better?

    And I've never...oh I see what you did there :smile:

    I do know one sure-fire way to avoid issues like this... use the right word and/or spell it right the first time.

    ETA - Double check before you post something you CAN'T change. Also - clearly i'm not great friend material. So ya don't need to bother with the friend request.

    Actually its a "I'm a fully grown adult who has a sarcastic/ dark/ dry sense of humour and got you and likes your style" emoticon....


    here, have a few more:smile::glasses: :drinker: :yawn: :love: :wink: :laugh: :happy: :tongue: :mad: :angry: :explode: :grumble:

    Well in that case....
    You need to use the "asjdfjsdknf" icon next time. I'll know. It'll be like a secret code only the sarcastic will get.

    To be honest I always accept friend requests. I don't think I've ever declined one. I also don't get the point of the little reason why someone wants to be friends with you; I kind of find them a bit creepy. I had someone describe me as "cute" and, to be honest, I was offended. Nevertheless, I still friended them; on here, it's great to have people losing weight everyday on my newsfeed and keeping me motivated, even if I don't particularly like them.

    I ignore the ones who don't even bother typing two sentences to introduce themselves. That and I get a lot of these "pro ana" type girls wanting to add me for thinspo/whatever and just....no.

    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? ;)

    Is it wrong to talk about my love of jello and pvc in a request?:embarassed:


    if the friend request is blank i usually dont accept.. it is nice to know whether or not they really care to write you a message

    I don't..this thread was started by me to see if other people agreed with the principle that politeness costs nothing. I am secure, thick skinned, am near impossible to offend and easy going to the point of death so do not need "friends" to validate my existence....

    However, there are some who bring a smile to my face just by being there...

    OOOOOORRRRR, you could consider that this is sarcasm. OP says he's thick-skinned, near-impossible to offend, and easy-going. I'm gonna assume he has caught the sarcasm...

    PS - it's not as fun when ya have to explain it.

    Anyone else think it's rude to ignore requests? a polite reply would be nice..something along these lines:

    1. Thanks but I'm comfortable with my current friends list.

    2. Sorry but you don't fit my friend profile.

    3. I liked one of your comments that's not really enough.

    or

    4. **** off you ****stalking ******!!!! I'm calling the cops now....

    don't leave a guy hanging :smile: .

    If they don't send me a note with the friend request and I decided to deny the request I don't send a note back. If they do send a message with the request I only deny it if I think they're creepy, in which case I don't want to encourage them by responding.
