    Bah. I think I missed an option about including a message. Can I sneak another one in now? :P

    g) Check for a message. Does it exist? Did the spelling and grammar errors make you cringe?

    Really, it's no big deal. If they turn out to not fit, there's a button for that.

    B, G. If there's a message I generally add them. If there's no message I look at their profile. If it isn't filled out or if it's clear they are starving themselves then I decline.

    I analyze their spirit guides to see if they sync with mine...I mean who wants spirit guides that don't get along, right?

    I think a pink'ish orange aura is far more indicative of compatibility.

    My spirit guide can beat up your spirit guide.

    But he won't.

    Wonder why they chose me. I'm not a nice person.

    this and then D. If I don't recognize someone from the forums or my friends FLs I'll ask my FL for any dirt. 95% of them I decline. the other 5% is immediately referred to the disclaimer on my profile. they need to know what they are getting themselves into.

    I use their friends list, profile info, and diary info to figure out whether or not I'm dealing with someone with an ED first and foremost. If they are, or if they're a beachbody coach, I decline. All others, I accept. If they don't give me enough info to go off of, then decline.

    If they have a (non-creepy) message, I accept.

    If they don't, I check their profile. A blank profile and blank photo with no posts on the forum... deny.

    There is always the delete button if they have an ED or are a little creepy.

    Furthermore I don't understand why people get so butthurt over the friend accepting methods of others.

    I don't want every single MFP member in my business and with some of the drama idiots cause, some caution isn't a bad thing.

    a). Then I wonder why they wanted to be friends in the first place. I usually message them and ask them why.

    How we became friends is a funny story, but lets not talk about that..
