Hi LSD,
I did notice that even in the friends section most of the requests don't sounds like friend requests to me. So I can see why you are getting frustrated.
Cheers, Glen

the internet is simply a tool for stalkers, pedophiles and just plain old weirdo's. What happened to gaining friends the old fashioned way?
I know some people lack the confidence and resort to the internet to find some sort of comfort in strangers but that just feels way to weird for me. Im not saying its not a good way i have a few friends ive met off the net but the majority of them are people ive met or grown up with.
Getting out there and sparking up a random conversation with somone can lead to friendship and at least that gives you a chance to make a simple judgement on the kind of person they are, something you cannot get from anyone off the internet. |

not a problem
just dont give up because of a few people who's intial response is rude and quite embarassing, there the kind of people everyone should stay away from.
I just hate the fact a person can pass judgement on someone without getting to know them properly but thats society i guess and we have only but ourselves to blame for the stereotypes yada yada yada that aid the difficulty to pursue some sort of friendship.
Anyway all the best |
