    LOL I get all kinds of funny FR... the pole photos have that effect I guess, but I usually think it's funny. If you don't want to be friends with guys or girls with EDs then just hit Decline.

    One time I got a FR stating something like, "Not gonna lie, I just have to be friends with you because you have a pole and can do that trick in your photo." Creepy? Maybe. But I thought it was so entertaining I accepted, and he's actually turned out to be a really cool guy.
    If they are truly creepy, I delete them!

    When I get something like, "Hey baby hop on my pole" or whatever... those I just Decline right away.

    I never get messages from guys asking me to hop on their pole. :sad: Never get Herbalife shoved in my face here, either, although now that I typed that I'll probably have an ad pop up on my screen. The guys I do have on my FL are really helpful when I have a question about lifting, or anything really. I didn't have any guys at all on my FL til last year.

    maybe its because you talk in all caps.

    just sayin'....

    i keep the people who try to add me for a week, and if it dosnt work then I get rid of them. if you don't give people a chance, you never know what could work for you. (this is referring to the male comment, I refuse to add anyone with eating disorders). The males in my friends list have been with me from 2 months to two years. CalJur for one, has changed the way i look at the world. he post inspirational quotes. he gives encouragement and advice. he has a detailed blog. but if i saw the picture he has up now, and he was trying to add me, nooo wayyy lol. dont judge a book by its cover, shoot people a message when they try to add you and ask why.
  • Heck i am a dude and i am scared to friend ladies because of all the weirdos and creepy dudes i have simply observed. My wife and i were talking about this the other day as we both jokingly discussed putting a more close-up shot for the Profile pic. I have a few supportive friends and its great.

    This is also a site where people would like to be talked to in a reasonable tone of voice. Would you want strangers randomly coming up to you in the street and screaming into your face, while asking for your help? Unless they're on fire, I would probably assume they are the weirdo, mace them and run in the other direction.

    oh yeah, I forgot. Smooches. :huh:

    Put up a default pic of a pole dancer and you'll get some males sending those kinds of requests. The decline button comes in handy! :-)
    I have a number of truly great and helpful guys on my FL, though, and no, they didn't send any "get on my pole" messages.

    Yeahhh if I get a request and any find where they found me(mutual friend, we both posted on a topic, etc) then I'm not adding them. And if they want to sell me something or are weird.. I'll delete them.

    I should try that just as an experiment :wink:

    I've only ever had one friend request, but their profile said they were looking for anorexic friends, don't know why they thought that was me, but I declined.
    As above I think not having a picture of yourself helps.

    well, you are obviously under weight in that blue head photo.


    Dude clearly needs some protein.

    I'd recommend breathing even before the protein. I promise, air does not have any calories!

    I get a lot of Friend Requests and I have no idea where they come from. It's nice but I recently had to do a Friend Purge, because I feel fake saying the same thing on a bunch of threads. I kept a bunch of peeps that I felt connected to or that really seem helpful / motivating to me or that seemed to need the extra support.

    As for the Shake Sellers, yup, they get the delete. I have deleted about 5 of them and one Herbalife pusher.

    I also delete Lonely Boys: "D@mn, I just worked my butt off and I'm so h0rney I just wanna hump something!". True story. Who talks like that you ask. The guy I deleted and anyone else who's lookin' for nub in all the wrong places...
