    Yes, there alot of people that like to collect friends on MFP, and it's not limited to men. Yes, there are people who want you to send them pictures, particularly nudes. Yes, there are creepers and trolls.

    Be glad that they dropped you.

    Big hint. If you don't want to get flirted with our hit on, don't post in the threads that exist for flirting and being hit on.

    But...I just want to have fitness minded people to help me on my journey to getting more toned. I'm also willing to share brownie and casserole recipes too..yummy!

    THE MEN DROP ME (I WON'T DATE OR SEND A PICTURE) OTHERS BECAUSE I SAID IT IN MY PROFILE.
    LOVE TO HAVE A MENTION OR TWO BUT AS IT STATES STEP OVER THAT LINE I'M GONE. READ MY PROFILE. I'M A CHEF (LE CORDON BLUE) AND WITH DEGREE IN NUTRITION. I STAY FIT (IN UK LANGUAGE THIS MEANS ( PRETTY} THATS NOT WHAT I MEAN... CHEEKY MEANS FIT (USA IT MEANS FIT OR TONED) DROP A LINE IF YOUR SERIOUS (MESSAGE) I EAT RIGHT I STAY FIT AND IF THAT MEANS PRETTY TO YOU FINE BUT THE CONVERSATION ENDS WHEN YOU CONTINUE WITH CAN WE MEET. PLEASE BE MATURE MARRIED OR SOMETHING I DON'T NEED A BOYFRIEND( NOT INTO MEN) I WORK IN A WONDERFUL HOTEL ON USA CANADA BORDER AND I WORK ALL DAY THE LAST THING AFTER 12 HOURS IS TO FEND OFF RELATIONSHIPS( IT MAKES ME FEEL BAD) ALSO I DO YOGA MEDITATION AND MINDFULNESS ALL ARE WELCOME LETS TRY TO BE HEALTHY I KNOW IT IS NOT EASY IT'S PAINFUL. I LOOK YOUNG FOR MY AGE BUT I'M AGING AND AS ALL OF US WANT TO STAY YOUNG LOOKING WELL YOU KNOW. I'M TRYING NOT TO OFFEND BUT THERE SHOULD BE AT MINIMUM 1 PERSON WHO FEELS THIS WAY.

    I think you are that person.

    ....translation? Perhaps you are just coming off as a bit too complicated for the men on here. I get a feeling that these weight loss forums are meat markets (dating sites) for a lot of us. Just lose the ALL CAPS thing and stay relaxed....you'll do fine honey!

    Yep! I try not to venture over to the cesspool that is "chit chat"... I posted twice over there recently, and had to shower afterwards :confounded:

    It's like there are two different MFP worlds. Chit chat and everything else.

    I have lost the caps (not knowing the caps had been on) and thank you for understanding it's so upsetting that someone would drop you as a friend for not sending a picture or submitting to an ongoing email proposel

    Same. It's a fleeing contact with a stranger, not a Rudy between BFFs

    I think she's saying that men send her friend requests here hoping for a date, but then unfriend her because she won't send them pictures or meet them in person.

    "Cuz it's hard for us hot chicks to beat back all the unwanted male attention here on MFP. :innocent:

    It's fabulous cardio! :laugh:

    Gee, d'ya think it might have anything to do with you posting in "would you kiss the person above?" Threads and saying yes?? I'm just sending a vague connection...

    :huh: Hanging out in the cesspool of chit chat would lead to pic requests? Who da thunk?

    OP, stay out of chit chat. That should make your stay more pleasant. In fact you can block that whole forum from your sight, if you wish.

    FYI, people can still message you if your profile is private.

    @AnnieWilliams19792 Hold on, before you go any further, I'd like to point out I would hit on you for a one night stand and I wouldn't really care about your age
