How many MYLOT friends do U have

I joined in January, and at first my friend's list grew really slow. Once in a while someone would invite me or I would invite them after we had a good discussion somewhere and found we enjoyed each other's company. However, once I got to where more people around mylot knew my name and recognized my discussions, more and more requests started pouring in. I don't think there has been a day that I have been on mylot and not gotten a friend request in a long time. I even have a guessing game I play with it, trying to figure out who is requesting my friendship before I go look, based on the discussions I have responded to and the responses I have gotten to my own discussions. My friend's list now has over 300 people on it, but I must admit that not all of them are people that I talk to a lot. I try to drop in and respond to their discussions when I have time and they interest me, but it's impossible to really be "close" to over 300 people! I do however have several people on mylot that I consider to be just as good friends to me as people I know offline though. =)
