Friend List

Since I have been here, I have recieved numerous "friend requests". If you will notice, my Friend List is empty, and I plan on keeping it that way. :wink:

Not that I am an unfriendly sort, just that I do not wish maintain such a list.

I am often baffled at the number of requests I get from (mostly) men without so much as a pre-emptive salutation or even the fakest of attempts at getting to know me first.

And, then again, there are those requests from (mostly) men who believe that a "nice tits" "hot body" or "hi, hit me up" comment is sufficient for friending.

After talking with a few folks, I have realized that there are many different reasons people use the "friend" button.
1. They want to know when you are online, and want to "follow" you.
2. They want to "remember" you
3. They want to find out more about you.
4. They actually have spent time with you chatting, messaging, etc. and have found some common interests.

I'm not trying to say that those are not good reasons for friending. I'm fine for whatever reason you use.

BUT... if you want to remember me, follow me, get to know me, or even get personal with me, this is what I suggest:

1. Go to my profile page
2. Select from the "User List" - Add to Contacts
3. DO NOT check "add to friend list too" (because even if we have gotten to know each other I will more than likely deny the friend request.)

The contact list is one-sided. I don't have to accept. It's all on you. If we get to a point where I want to return the favor of keeping up with you... then I will add you to my Contact List as well.

Enjoy the site, have fun. And please don't get all puffed up if I don't accept your friend request.

Happens to men too, Betty!
 
I think you are a lovely lady and I understand you not wanting to keep up with a friends list. I will be watching for your posts and would like to get to know you better.
 
Lol I think when people are online they no longer treat others like how they would in real life.

I have myself commented on peoples pictures stating the obvious but I don't friend people I wouldn't chat with; agree it defeats the object.
 
Hey Betty, How ya doing? Like your pics you have a wonderful body. What do you think of this site? pretty funny place, hope to talk to ya soon.

Well it would be great to get to know you first, how do you suppose we do that, how about a game of 20 questions? Wanna start?
