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

    But, we're already friends. What more could you need?

    Just curious. Would you ever try to re-friend someone who deleted you from their list?

    I have a few that deleted me, but that was all my own fault because I kinda didn't log into MFP for...... 4 months. haha. I have no grudges, but I dunno, I feel like it would be kind of awkward.

    I did this once. I wasn't sure if it was a glitch (I have had friends get accidentally dropped) so I re-requested. When the same person dropped me again, I said **** it, guess they didn't like me.

    I accidently have deleted a few people - one of them did contact me back and I was very happy that she did. I hadn't realized I had accidentally defriended her! (Also I sent you a FR too!) READ MAH REQUEST.

    I accept all requests, and keep you there unless you don't log in for a month or you do something to annoy me. It's MFP, not that serious.

    I have done this...intentionally and accidentally, as the sender and as the receiver.

    I accept most FR (with messages)...but may cut someone for little to no reason.

    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.
    Don't know how helpful this will be, but I encourage you to embrace being That Person.

    In some ways, you already are, by posting about it here.

    I don't think that's a bad thing at all. I think we tend to get way too caught up being That Person, when That Person is who we are.

    If I could go back through my life and get back all the time and energy I analyzed and over-thought what I did, how I said something, how I acted, how I was perceived... I'd probably be 20 years younger. And more handsome.

    I deleted a guy a few months ago because I never heard anything from him, even though I commented on his stuff from time to time. Soon after, he sent me another FR saying he thought I was on his FL but didn't see me, so I accepted and gave him another chance. I just deleted him again the other day.

    Ehhh...if I find someone intriguing I will send one. No big deal either way though. I haven't came across anyone so creepy that I've rejected them yet.

    muha ha ha...haaaaah....
