    I don't send out FRs very often. I recently sent a FR to someone who's profile I liked, and who had mutual friends. I sent a small paragraph saying why and made a joke, and got a bit annoyed when I was declined, only because I made the effort to read their profile and relate to them. There should be a message box when accepting/declining FRs. (or maybe that would be a bad idea)

    Also because I am awesome and they totally missed out. *kanyeshrug*

    Do you *know* they declined or did you *assume* they declined? I've heard a few times that someone thought they sent a FR to me but I never received it. I'm not entirely confident in MFP's ability to deliver all of the FRs.

    Assumed. Because I had saw they added someone after I sent my FR. And I don't want to be That Person who sends a message asking why I can't hang out with them.

    But I did send a different one to someone who I comment back and forth with on mutual friend's posts, that never got accepted which kind of baffled me. I wouldn't be surprised if it was MFP who effed that one up.

    Today I accidentally hit the decline on a FR I was going to accept because my phone scrolled down too fast. I don't remember who sent it.

    How about a playwright? Can I force them to sing duets on Broadway together? Dressed in costumes from Cats? And take definitely not creepy pictures of them in compromising positions?
    I thought those pics were just between us. :cry:
    I don't know how they got out, baby! Must have been an accident. I KNEW taking my computer to that shop to get fixed was a mistake!
    I forgive you. Can I be in your broadway show? I know Memory by heart.
    Midnightttttttttttttt, not a sound from the pavementtttttttttttt

    Can I join? Can I join? I'll bring my ukelele!

    Maybe MFP should add a missed connections section.

    Given some of the threads, maybe a casual encounters section wouldn't hurt either...

    so...

    as a direct result of the discussion on this thread, who was spurred on to send out friends requests to people that they had been previously only admiring from afar?

    i did.

    I snagged several. I'm holding off on the rest though. Don't want to be a FR slut.

    I did, too. But, I'm taking it slow, two major victories in one day is enough.

    Wait, I'm supposed to carry the tune? I thought it was Cats, so caterwaulering in a general soprano range would suffice? If not, I'm going to have to amend it to "I can do facepaint and costuming". That doesn't sound nearly as impressive.

    I FR people who make me laugh, or who have similar goals, or who just seem awesome. If they don't accept, I will be fine :)

    I don't like to send FRs because if someone declines me I have to put them on my list, harass them, make them cry, make them sorry they ever declined me. It's just too much effort.

    ^^I know, right?!


    ...So I mean't to quote this earlier, but instead my response just looks awkward and out of place. lol.

    I've got a few in the crosshairs but I need to psyche up more.
