Almost all of my MFP friends are females. Nothing against that, but I want to mix it up with some males here :D

Hit me up and add me !

    We're here... we just aren't active because everyone on here assumes we are here for the wrong reasons.

    I know what I am here for...
    Getting healthy and a better life for myself.
    Anyone has a problem with that I could tell them to go somewhere...
    LOL!
    Sorry I am such a smartass sometimes!

    I agree, most of my MFP friends are females, and I have nothing against that but it's always nice to a mix of people as friends to support you, and show your support too!!!

    For the first time ever, I was showing my husband my MFP page yesterday (he hated the prom gone wrong pic of us... maybe the boost he needed for his own journey LOL). He saw a couple of my friends and one was niceguy hahahaha He says "You have MALE friends too?!?!?" I said "Contrary to popular belief dear, Men need support and offer support on the weight loss front too, you know!" :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Seriously. I have attempted to befriend MANY females that have said something witty or informational on the forums only to be met with a "I don't accept friend requests from men." Grow up.

    I'm a dude .... We're out here. I tend to focus on calorie burn as a way towards my weight goals ... Frankly alot of these "friends" are rather shallow with all the 'way to goes'.

    Success to you .. you and only you can control your health and weight goals.

    I so agree with this post!!! If some think men are only on here to get into their big or now small girl britches they need to get a life. Everyone needs support through their journey regardless of it being a short or long journey.

    So shoot, if any of the men want a female friend who wont think you are hittin on her, feel free to add me and may the others eat my now smaller shorts!

    I agree. I accept FR's from guys. If they turn out to be creepy (because sadly, there ARE some who are on here for the 'wrong reasons'), you can always remove/block them later.

    Friend request sent. Excellent post! I, too, and a little anxious when it comes to sending friend requests to women. A sign of the times, I guess. I accept friend requests from people who are here for the same reason that I am: Looking for support and motivation as we reach for a better quality of life. There are other sites out for for anyone looking for something different!

    I do not send friend requests to anyone ....If anyone wants to add me I add them.

    I am a single guy, so I have to be careful with how I present myself. If I hang with any of my neighbours wifes or single femals too long, have a drink, the romour mills start working ... Same here, If I send a friend request to a female, their first thought will be, is he going to hit on me ? I had rather just not send any requests.

    As far as I am concerned a person is a person. But not everyone thinks and/or acts the same ....

    So, here is another male who is dead set on loosing weight ! This is why I am here .. not anything else.

    The first thing my cynical, smart alec self thought when I read that was, "They're off somewhere being loved and accepted regardless of what they look like, lucky them."

    Then I read the post about assumptions and I thought, "Wait, does that mean some women on here are afraid of chubby chasers? What in the heck is wrong with a chubby chaser? Bring it! You won't catch me, but I'll have fun running away with my newly boosted self-esteem."

    Yep, I definitely have body image issues. Oh well. Hope this post didn't offend anyone, because that was not my intent.
