    All I care about is that the person is eating enough to fuel their bodies properly

    There's no rule that says you have to be friends with everyone here.

    If I just walked up to you and started touching your pecs, would you consider me a friend?

    I'd touch yours back.

    I approve of this friendship.

    yeah..... that's way too complicated. If you're hot it's motivation & a YES! :)

    edit : but..... I usually don't accept if their profile's not OPEN to read about them

    Right now is as good of time as any to OPEN my profile :bigsmile:

    lol, never too late

    As long as they are friends with Brett, they must be good people.
    Yes, that is referred to as the hero trump card \m/

    *slapfight* Stop this both of you! No one friend me! I won't accept, you hear me!

    *whew* looks like I got on the Epic FL just in time then!


    Also - I do enjoy a good message during the friending process - Let me know why me, or where you've seen me to prompt such a request - it helps break they ice.

    Or junk pics, those work too...

    who are you to tell me who i should and should not let into my life???? I think it's perfectly ok for people to set their own boundaries. It's healthy.

    What is with all the stipulations when friending someone on here?

    I have read on many people bios that you…..A) Have to send them a message when friending them; of when and why your friending them. B) You can’t have too less of a calorie intake C)You have to log in all the time unless you have a excuse, D) Be a frequent commenter E)You have to engage with the person on a regular basis F)No people with a eating disorder.

    WOW! That’s a lot of stipulations of being ones interwebs friend. I am new here but I guess there are many who have ed's that you have to put that in your bio? Are these stipulations common to being ones friend on here? Or are these people extreme?

    i think people want someone whos in the same position as them and ive unfreinded people who have ed ... i use to and i dont need to see that stuff im trying to do this the healthy way. iwant people who eat a normal amount of calories maybe i can get help by reading their diarys ect and i delete people if they dont log in for 2 months .. not very saportive ...

    anyone can add me :)
    I don't mind.
    If people want to loose the weight by being unhealthy that is entirely up to them.
    As far as I'm aware this site is all about advice and support, not about judging anyone for the choices that they make :)

    My diaries are closed, sorry but don't need anyone to tell me on days where I don't feel well and haven't ate that much that I am being "dangerously unhealthy" ... yeah pal ok.....

    Easy Osy!

    I completely understand, after a year and a half of logging in, WHY people have so many stipulations but I still friend everyone that asks me to... and then if they are a complete weirdo, we just don't mesh, or whatever reason I choose, I delete if necessary :)

    Totally get this!!! Some people almost give you the impression that they're "too good" for you and that they're doing you a favour. Its a bit arrogant and gross to me.

    Not for me, I'll be happy to friend anyone looking for support. Some may have just had bad experiences or could just be looking for people who are on the same regimen they are on!

    Because I keep my friends list manageable. The point is to support one another. I read people's dairies, make motivational comments, and try to help with problems. I expect the same in return. Otherwise you might just as well chat on the message boards, surely? I know I can only keep up with about 40 people on here; if people drop out, as they do sometimes, then I'll add people, but I look for people who are going to be active friends and with whom I have something in common. Makes sense to me.
