How can I get more mylot friends?

When I came here I was a little backward about requesting friends initially because no one knew me. The approach I took was to serf around from site to site and pick discussions that appealed to me. While I was there I looked at the members profile and other discussions they'd posted. If they were aligned to my way of thinking I'd make myself known by adding a few comments to various discussions...then checking back and responding to responses to keep the thread going. That way they were encouraged to visit my site...and often they'd ask me...or I would ask them. It has worked very well. Another thing I developed as a motto is...'a response for every response' on my site. In short order people started thanking me for always doing that. The idea of Mylot is...'a discussion forum.' Without responses to comments it is pretty hard to have dialog. I notice that some members do not follow through on that and I when I check back to discussions I've responded to and there is no comment to my showing up there I move on and often do not return. To me responding to comments on our sites is a polite way of saying 'thanks' for choosing my topics. When regulars participate in my topics I do my best to do the same for them. Adding comments to friends sites and developing more solid connections through regular chats is not that different from how it is with friends in person. To have a friend you need to be one...show interest and offer support, be considerate, present...you know all that good stuff that creates connections. So there you go..that is how my friends list grew...make yourself known, post interesting topics, respond to responses, be there for them and the ripple effect will attract more friends into your personal sharing circle. Good luck with it!

Hi. You can either answer discussions that interest you, and if you see the person that started it, is someone you'd be interested in having as a friend, then just request them. Or, just start looking at different peoples profiles, see if they have the same interests as you, and request them as a friend. When someone answers a discussion that you start, check out their profile, and see if you're interested. There's lots of different ways. Take care.

I think you should reponse to other people response and you will just find people with who yoy you can talk. I find a friend like that too. She just respond to my discussion and we start to send each other meessages. Then it was no more comfortable becuase those message take long to show up and so we exchnage our email address. And now we are still writing to each other and she is really good friend to me. Hope you will find someone like that here too.

I think you can participate in more discussion, and share ur experience with more friend, if you find some discussion u interesting and inspired, u can write u response and send a message to author. If you can help someother, u can help their do u best. who have some other advice? share it with just3crazygirlz.
