    I reject all invites because I am only here with my fiancee. Have enough friends in the "real" world.

    Then why are you posting on the message boards?

    Didn't know it was a requirement to have online friends in order to post on forums.

    Hmmm.....lemme read MFP's policy on this.

    Nope not there.

    My point is, if you're "only here for your fiance" and have no need for interaction with us creepy cyberfolk, then why post on the boards?

    Obviously, there is no law against it. I'm just trying to follow the logic. It's a character flaw. Sue me.

    LOL....I didn't say I don't like to interact. Or call anyone creepy. You are grasping for straws. I sometimes like to go on the forums and kill some downtime. The fact that I'm not looking for anything more indepth like friendship doesn't imply I can't interact on some form of social level.

    Most of my friends are female... only one male. That's because men haven't been very supportive in the past or they have been creepy with me... i've had a few bad experiences with men on here. Has put me off a bit...

    I only usually only add female friends but that's because my weight problems are due to problems only women can have so I have friends with the same problem.... and I don't think all the guys want to hear about my girl issues just saying....

    I accept either gender. I'm not interested in getting with anyone online so I don't really care either way. I will delete you however if you're a creeper or you make excuses to not work out. Can't stand people like that.

    Plus I would never accept a FR from the OP after the whole "there should be weight brackets for races" posts.

    I'm just trying to add up how many of my female friends deleted the guy because of his creepy posts. I know it's a few.

    But of course, he's just here for his fiancee...

    Now you're just not making sense. Clearly your personality must be better suited to physical interaction.

    I have 1 male friend (I had another but deleted him) but the majority of mine are women. My only reasoning behind that really is that diet and exercise for a man would probably be quite different to what I'm doing. For example, some of my friends come from threads where they're looking for people similar to them (short girls with lots to lose for example).

    I only accept FRs with some promise of future bing-bang-boom. I make all friend requests with it clearly stated that by accepting my FR you acknowledge your requirement to provide me with entertainment and accept that I will probably post innuendoes on your wall. That is non-gender-specific. I am an equal opportunity lecher.

    HEY!

    I didn't see that in our agre.....oh

    Okay.

    I see it.

    I only accept women mainly because we obviously share the same weight/body type issues, plus i can talk about my period or boobs without feeling weird. haha
    I do have some guys like my hubby, friends hubby and friends brother, but they cool. :] yay double standards!

    I personally like to add people who have an open food diary. I think it's interesting to see what people eat. It helps keep me focused.

    I have only female friends because I like to have things in common with the people I am friends with. Most of my friends are other brides who are trying to get in shape and most of them have similar goals to me. It's nice to surround myself with others that have a similar goal.

    Also I haven't ever received a request from a man. Not opposed to them if they're friendly :)

    I'm so glad you think you know so much about me based of a few sentences. Maybe you shouldn't concern yourself with other people and stop being a busy body.

    I accept both, but am picky about male friends I accept. Many men around here are douche canoes.
    Interesting that it is impossible for a female to be a douche canoe. Good to know.

    You're not honestly trying to tell me what to do are you? I'm starting to wonder if you have any friends at all in the "real world".

    Douche canoe is considered a "male" term...the "female" equivalent is "*kitten* waffle".

    I don't see where I said it was impossible for a female to be a douche canoe.
