Some probably "checking" you out.. etc. are you friending random ppl?0 -
They come and go, my friends list fluctuates frequently. I would just focus on the friends who are there to support you.3

I tend to keep most of mine. I think it's important to tell jokes and nothing else.
Like this one:
My girlfriend kicked me out because of my terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions. But don't worry,
I'll return.11 -
Is this a serious question? Seems like people like you around here but don't take it personal when new adds drop you. That's just how it goes I guess. I've been dropped and it has made me wonder as to why like you but maybe I just wasn't a good fit to their current fitness goals and they are looking for similar like minded people. The ones that matter are the ones that have stuck with you this long.3

For what it's worth, the only time I've ever dropped people was when I was fighting a particularly bad mood and felt like withdrawing from *all* social media. Obviously this ain't gonna pertain to everybody, but sometimes it really is "not you, it's me"
I felt bad doing it, too, but...you know, dark times5 -

Yep. I've been here.1 -
Sometimes I accept a FR on a whim, but if the person doesn't interact or introduce themselves with in a few days I delete them. There are also times when there is a personality conflict. Or if I accept a FR and see that their FL is 300-400 long, all female or even devoid of entries... delete.5

I think being good with math helps too. I don't know why, but just look at how popular that Albert Einstein was.4

This. I've had too many add me and not interact at all. I kinda stopped doing the whole friends thing on here because of it. Maybe Ill try again.1 -

I can think of at least 20 people I need to cut from my friends list for lack of interaction. And another 5 or so who need to go because they're creepy.3 -
I usually don’t even notice if I’m been dropped til way after the fact - don’t take it personal we’re all just a bunch of weirdos on the interwebs right 🤷♂️7

I don’t know. I only delete people who haven’t logged on in a while or who I never talk too. People have deleted me, or their account and never re-added me although we still talk, it’s whatever.2

Maybe your fitness commitment isn’t up to theirs. That’s why I would drop someone.8

I keep my friends in order of the alphabet. So if I get two M’s, for example, one of them has got to go. I also have @kam26001 on my list seven times. Not sure how that happened but he sends me money so I keep him. I’m in the market for an X, P and a Q.4
