    I add friends with similar goals. It helps to see what type of exercise they do and what food they are eating for ideas.
    I also have my diary open and am happy for any feedback.

    I add friends because despite all my statements to the contrary, I really like people. Having fun and or pretty people to chat with and or look at all day on this handy dandy website, really makes me a happy and or creepy person.

    People add me because of my gif.

    I always think your gif makes you seem completely up yourself. Lol. I'm sure you're lovely and all but... yeah.

    completely up myself? I am not sure I understand?

    As in arrogant. I just realised how rude my original post was.. I didn't intend it to be that way... nothing wrong with a bit of showing off.

    I can't tell if you're serious or joking with the Most Awesome Person bit though. Haha.

    He's serious. We had a vote and he won.


    a mix of both..... what he says above is true.... there was a bracket/ voting process and I won. the gif was done for the humor.

    Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are...

    I only add people who, in their unique way, make me a better person by their brilliance.

    when i'm adding friends, its people that make me laugh, make me think or have something significant in common.

    when i'm accepting, i'll add anyone who wants to be my friend, i figure they find something interesting about me, so i'll go along with that. :)

    Generally I add people who eat the way I do (paleo), simply because the paleo/primal boards are where I spend most of my time on here. I don't post enough to get many requests. I think I have gotten... two? Sad, unpopular times for me.

    I usually add people who are similar age, weight and height. I figure we can motivate one another better because we know pretty darn well what the other is going through.

    There are people I would like to friend because they seem rad, but then I'm really actually a chicken and so I don't. Unless they are similar age, weight and height, and then I'm all SCORE!

    Usually something involving the de-gayification of Matt Bomer.

    is that a real word or have you just made it up?

    It's been used in a proper sentence. It's a real word. :drinker:
  • I mostly just add whoever asks, coz I don't want to be a jerk. :P

    I add people either because they have had good success and I wanna see what they are eating if they have an open diary to see what is helping them lose the weight. Or I add people because they are doing the same type of workouts as me for extra support or anything with the workouts I'm doing. Or because they have added me and I accept their friend request. As long as people are supportive and help give good advice and push you to your goals I am happy adding anyone on my page.
  • weird...Im hot and funny but have no friends.

    Sometimes I get a PM from a friend saying "hey, you should add ......" and I do. Or someone is really funny and cheerful. Or it is someone who interacts on a mutual friend's wall, and we end up PMing and then adding. Or it is someone just as passionate about fitness. Or man-candy decorations for the wall. Or requests from people who have common health issues or....you get the idea.

    There are all sorts of reasons.

    Honestly? Unless the message sent with the request is majorly creepy, I add everyone that requests me
    ..the more the merrier. Who COULDN'T use more friends?

    You mean to tell me that no-one has messaged you about me? Boy, I tell you, I'm not sure what I pay those people for.

    It's true. If he hadn't already been on my FL for over a year, I would add him just for this gif...


    ...(as if I can't see it on nearly every thread posted in the past month anyhow...but still, the point is, his gif wins all the awards).

    They sent me an invite with a message and they haven't openly insulted me more than maybe 20 or 30 times . . .

    I add people because of similar goals, or if they're funny and a few just because they're hot :) I usually accept any, so that's why I have a bunch of creepy guys as friends...kidding...
