Deleting friends?

I have only deleted a few people mostly because of absence and/ or never supporting back.
1 was because I just can't deal with the ED thing at all. I apologise if that sounds really terrible, but it also triggers stuff in my brain and I need positive people around me who are truly trying to make their life better by EATING good food and MOVING their bodies.

I can support people who are in recovery. I just can't support people who, in my opinion, don't want to get better. If I'm an a-hole for saying that so be it.

I prefer quality over quantity! I can't interact with 100+ friends, therefore I prefer a small number of friends that are truely dedicated to working out and helping others. I'm not trying to be another number on someone's friendlist, I'm trying to be a supportive friend that will give you 150% while helping you achieve your goal...if I can't get that in return.....PEACE!!

So far my friends list is small enough to be manageable. I've deleted a couple of people because they didn't return and I got tired of x may need some encouragement signs. Can't encourage much if they don't show up. So I send them a message that says I'm cutting you, but if you come back and are active, feel free to send me another request. I figure most people deserve a second shot. I always check people out that send a friend request for weirdness or rudeness and so far, I seem to have made sound judgments.

If i dont here from them, get no feed back, no encouragement, nada, i delete them.

I delete A-holes.

Bahahaha! Yes. This. And really really long absences, with no response to a message regarding the absence.

But what about people who have opposite goals? Or people who want to lose weight yet eat crap in their diary? People with ED's?

Some of you have the most intense reasons for deleting people. Do you cut people out of your lives this easily as well? I am not trying to be mean but let's be realistic. Deleting people because they were absent three to six days???? What if they are on vacation, or loss internet, or better yet they are down and out or embarassed by the results they are/ are not getting??? Some of you are literally watching every post someone makes in forums and if you don't like their opinion you delete them? No one should have to tolerate ignorance or rudeness. Hopefully, you will allow persons of different mindsets to be around you. Weightloss isn't about just lossing weight, it's also about growing and learning. I understand the give and take of supporting your friends and them supporting you. However; don't become a co-dependent. If a person doesn't mesaage you constantly or comment on your post regularly shouldn't be life or death. It takes TIME for relationships to form!!

But what about people who have opposite goals? I love having a variety of people around me. It helps me see things from every aspect. I never want to be close minded.
Or people who want to lose weight yet eat crap in their diary? No one is perfect. Fact is the heavier you are the more calories your will get , which means more room for " extra's'. When I was on WW, that was the motto: Eat what you want and lose weight. Some people need to be educated, some are trying, and some don't care. Everyone is different , get over it.
People with ED's: I wouldn't personally freind a person with an ED. If they freinded me I would accept. I would encourage them to be healthy. Not just in eatting, but mentally and emotionally. ED aren't just people underweight but people overwieght and binging.

I love the support I get from people. Expecially from my boyfriend, friends. However; at the end of the day : It's up to me whether I will succeed or not.
I would only delete someone for being rude, making racists comments, and/or ignoring my inbox messages.

If I never mssg or interact with the person after so long I delete them. I prefer quality over quantity.

Same here. Said the exact same thing in another topic.

If they don't log in for more than 3 weeks (I give a lot of leeway because I know I can disappear for a couple weeks at a time and come back with a fierceness - and 3 weeks is how long it takes to develop a habit), are annoying, get involved with tricky diets like hcg or just think exercise will solve all their bad eating problems, get petty, etc. I will delete them. Also, people who send me friend requests and then never reach out. If I can go down the list of my friends and find someone I don't know their name and have never had a conversation with, they're gone.

in fact I have a friend now who hasn't logged in and won't be because she passed away. But I won't be deleting her, because I remember the support she gave ME when she was active.

don't log on in over a week
post negatively about their looks constantly
constantly eat way too little
if they never bother to be supportive to me or anyone else
if i'm friends with them for a month or more and i've never spoken to them

i have never deleted anyone x i personally have an ed and its really upsetting when people take one look at that fact and then delete me its not fair. i have no time for people who cant see past my illness im the same as everybody else on here joined because i was over weight and am now trying to loose some some people make me sick RANT OVER!! LOL XX

I had someone on my friends list who hadn't logged in for over a month, so I deleted him. He then came back and said there had been a death in his family which was the cause of his absence. I felt awful for deleting him since he had a genuine reason, so I re-added him and explained why I had deleted him.

Now, I don't delete anyone, unless they're abusive, inappropriate and not genuine.
