Do you consider your MFP friends...

Options
"Friends" or "Followers"...

Do you find yourself being the ringleader of your friends group, or is everyone just plain ol' supportive, loving, and "sharing your journey"...

Or... are do you just creepily troll your hotty friend's pictures? YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! :bigsmile:

    BOLD question my friend!! lol

    I consider MFP'ers to be my internet friends. I'm NOT the RINGLEADER, I'm the CHEERLEADER! I want to be nothing but a supportive friend, share ideas, be a shoulder to cry on, and encourage people to make wise decisions.

    Being a creeper - um, I have a life outside this computer and I have no intentions on living my life vicariously though the internet.

    Ah, my dear... but so many do! So many find this to be the real world... Which I guess is ok, right?

    I want to be a virtual cheerleader... but even my virtual self looks chubby in that skirt! ;p

    I'm definitely not the ring leader. If anything I'm the class clown except only I laugh at my jokes. My MFP friends are very very supportive but not blind support either, they are honest with me and tell me if I'm doing something stupid (eating too little, working out too much etc)

    I have yet to add somebody based on their looks, I don't clutter my friends list with girls I cannot get (due to distance) and if I just wanted to stalk, why add them when I can just as easily watch their pics WITHOUT adding them? btw, I have some of the hottest MFP'ers on my friends list

    Awww thanks taunto!!!

    I'm not a ringleader, i'm more of the ditzy blonde that constantly gets in trouble and has a "story" to tell ....which is much appreciated by my friends list....

    I also apparently get rickrolled on occasion...right taunto?

    I consider them my friends and fellow fitness lovers who all want the same goal as I !!!
    I am a Cheerleader all the way, and if I happen to be inspiring others while I post away happily about my work outs, angrily about my thighs and how they burn then that is great!!!

    i have made some truly awesome friends here. Some will be forever friends, I know. Each friend is unique and teaches and leads me in different ways. I hope I do the same for them. I love my MFP friends.

    Very well said!

    I hope I lead some and I know I follow others. I try to support as best I can and most of the time I do a half-a$$ed job. Eh, I'm the best me there is! :flowerforyou:

    As a stay-at-home-mom, sadly, i don't have a ton of interaction with adults other than my husband on most days. Except my friends here. So, i'm not a ring leader, i'm not a follower, i'm a friend. I try to be here for my friends, and they're here for me. they offer support and advice, and i attempt to do the same. I'd call some of them real friends, not just online friends. Maybe that's sad to you, but, it's where i'm at right now, so i'm okay with it.

    Oh, and i like to perv on the pics. A LOT.
