    Basically, we are judging others based upon what they look like.

    Basically, we're human.

    We have so much in common! We could be besties!

    *snort*

    You're just jelly.

    Yeah, it's so weird when these topless women hit me up and have nothing about themselves in their profile. Happens every single day! LADIES! I'M HERE TO GET HEALTHY! NOT LOOK AT YOUR BOOBS! (well maybe...)

    Im a female and I recently experienced a similar situation. I was friend requested, so I was trying to find out a little background. It was Male with no shirt. Okay, whatever..... Im trying to check this person out I accidentally accepted him. So figure it will be fine. "But something didn't feel right this time. That voice we females have built in us was talking. This person started posting like they was on there Facebook page. About themselves and kids, stuff "I". I looked at all his friends a "lot of attractive female". A whole lot. People speak about there day, family, children etc..... And you think nothing of it you send positive comments. But I just didn't like there post. You start becoming genuine friends with your MFP family by talking to folks everyday On off all day sometimes. But you know when a person is bragging appose to being genuine. From the moment I accepted this person I got a bad vibe. So I Unfriended them. And I immediately felt better about it. This person may have meant no harm and if so I'm would say I'm sorry. However, It didn't feel right so it was right. I just want to share my story.

    I don't go off of the profile pic. But am leary if it's all women friends, and generally there is a theme with those women too. But I always give someone a chance if they send a request. IF I get nothing, or if they come at me with obvious ulterior motives, I will delete.

    I decline all friend requests that don't include a note.

    I also decline FR that include a note if that note appears to be generic/not addressed specifically to me.

    I require a note in all friend requests that include their name, address, and social security number with a statement granting me permission to conduct a full credit report and background search. You can never be too careful of who your friends are these days on MFP.

    Also, I want a whole paragraph dedicated and addressed specifically to me telling me why I should consider being friends with them.

    Most of the females who send me a FR only have single pic of their faces. I mean, what am I supposed to do with that? This is a fitness sight, not glamour shots. Let's see some abs, glutes, mams, etc. :p

    I can agree with this. Except I'm not at the point where I'm proud enough of my body to post anything but my face. Hopefully I'll get there soon, but for now you guys are only going to get my brilliantly beautiful smile! ;)

    I sent OP a FR and she hasn't stopped PM'ing ever since. I think she did it on purpose to collected naked torsos.

    I can't believe you figured me out so fast. :(

    Oh... That explains why I didn't get accepted.

    I accept pretty much anyone, but I also cull weekly for people who are either a) insane; b) dead air; or c) stalkerish. Although "c" might reference back to "a".

    If they don't send me a message asking for a nude selfie, then I don't consider them to be serious, and I don't accept.
