Friend Requests

Women: do you send men friend requests?

Men: what prompts you to send them?

ive accepted a lot but rarely sent any myself. im very serious about my health and getting fit as ive spent most of my adult life beyond morbidly obese, so i tend to send if i think they are genuine, motivating, dont spend their time slating everyone on the forums! and if i feel i could actually be friends with them. its hard to motivate and be motivated by someone you dont like enough to be friends with i like to know who is on my list x

Gender doesn't matter to me. I think the more motivation and support the better.

I don't usually send friend requests to men. I don't want them to get the wrong idea. I normally send requests to women.

I have only sent a few FR's but they have always been based on something they have said that gives us common interests, goals or that I feel I could learn something from them. Never based on how they look.

I will send FR to someone if I find them to have:

1) An attractive fitness physique and mutual friends
2) If I have seem them in the forums or on friends feeds and find they have a great sense of humor and can make me lol some
3) If I have something similar in common with them such as a great weight loss story, or even being local to me
4) If I've seen them post in the forums and they seem relatively awesome

Just depends...if they are into things that interest me, I send a friend request. Male or Female.

Don't log in for 5 days - I boot their butt from my friend list.

I haven't sent very many. When I have it was because I saw a forum post that led me to believe that there were some common I interests. I accept all requests with or without messages, male or female. I don't have a large list though. I will say, seeing the title of some of the threads on the chit chat board, I can see why some people are skittish about FR's. It's like kindergarten.

I send them randomly quite often

I send friend requests frequently to people who are looking for new friends and support. It's a lot easier to do this when you have people helping you, even if they're strangers.

I end up sending friend requests mostly to women, because they seem to make up the vast majority of users, especially on the introduction board. I'll happily friend other guys though, as long as their not the type that's strictly here to creep/hit on women, which seems to be about half the guys here.

Occasionally, on some threads, a newbie may be seeking new friends. I pick and choose to whom I'll extend a "feel free to add me," then make a final determination on accepting should they send me the request. I've never actually solicited for friends.

I am married but still tend to send more FR to women than men as some of the guys on here take a FR the wrong way... ladies, you arent the only ones that get harassed ;-) Don't get me wrong, I am ok for friends with guys and girls of any any sexual preference but I am not on here trying to hookup with anyone. Flirting is fine but leave it at that.

I use to send a lot of requests in the beginning to men and women.

I don't bother much now since I have a few goodies on my list. Now I usually get requests from friends of friends, and they are usually girls.
