Are you more willing to accept FR if you find the person attractive?

All things being equal I'm less likely to add some random I have no interaction history with if they seem a collector/just a pretty face.

It seems pretty popular to on this site to just stockpile people you think are pretty though.

    No! I like personality and the willingness to share their thoughts and input!

    I way prefer people who have a personality. I like when the people on my FL and I can actually engage.

    2 things:
    1. (For me) attractiveness is more of a consideration if the person is single, great convo and local (a 10/10 300 miles away doesn't really matter)
    2. Sometimes they have such an incredible body that I have to admire the dedication and hard work. It's a compliment. Sometimes the body is just so amazing that I just am compelled to follow their progress.

    My other friends were likely the result of a good back and forth convo, so the attractiveness of the person is secondary

    I accept friends who are motivational and here mainly to improve or make a change in their diet and fitness. It is added bonus if they are fun as well! Do not like ppl who add you and never engage.

    I actually like personality more, but on here it's nice to be able to be motivated by others and see the challenges that some have been through and over came.

    I accept every FR. If they prove to be uninteresting, I delete them later. Regardless of how big their boobs are.

    If a person is genuine, has a sense of humor, and is motivated in whatever their own personal goals may be then I am open to being friends. Looks and lame a** one liners get you nowhere.

    I guess it depends what you're here for. Personally, I'm here for fitness/weight loss tips and support. I keep an eye out for like-minded people who express themselves in a way that appeals to me and reach out to them if I think we might be able to help each other. I would never *friend* someone simply to add to my collection. In fact, I don't understand why anyone would do that, but I didn't grow up with facebook (thank goodness.)

    Initially, I didn't take any requests because I don't have a lot of extra time to 'engage'. If I have time to waste, it's typically on the boards. I have to wonder why I get so many that have absolutely no message and the people sign up to lose 7 lbs but have private profiles. I'm not looking to 'collect' but I am always open to someone who has something to say that catches my attention. Mostly, my friending is limited to real life. If that makes me an a** then...I have to deal.

    Could care less what they look like. It's 100% what their outlook and mindset is.

    I mostly accept all FR. I have never even thought of denying a FR based on looks.

    I just barely started becoming active in the forums. Before that I only had friends that I knew irl, and only 4 of them, lol. But now, none of them are active at all on here. So, after becoming more active in the forums and recieving lots of friend requests, I have accepted most of them initially, regardless of profile pic, but when I see that they're not active with their daily diary/updates, or that they're just trying to sell stuff then I delete them without abandon, lol.

    I really don't care what they look like. I accept almost all friend requests , unless they just seem to be creepy. But if I find their posts annoying I'll delete them within the first couple days
