I have never asked anyone to be my friend

I guess it's a fear of rejection that stops you asking people. And when you come across discussions like mine that I started not long ago saying I hate receiving friend requests from people I've had no contact with it doesn't help any. That's not to say that people whose discussions you regularly you participate in are not going to be pleased to see a friend request from you. I generally don't ask people to be my friend either, not because I'm scared or anything but I think in my case it's laziness lol. I always assume I will get friends requests from others and generally I accept the ones whose discussions I have taken part in and those who've responded to mine. Maybe you'll get lots more friend requests generated from this discussion itself. x

I have requested people to be my friends but usually after I have replied to some of their discussions or they have mine and I feel that there would be a lot in common and discussions that I could get involved in. I have also had a few friends requests and have checked their profiles before accepting, when I first joined I would accept anyone but some in hindsight I don't really have that much in common with. I have requested some that have not been accepted, but don't feel it as a rejection, maybe they haven't been online since or maybe they don't like some of my discussions. I'd say go for it, request and see what happens. Ellie :D

I,too have never asked anyone to be my friend.But i have many friends because everyone who asked me to be their friend,i added him or her to my lists of friends.I only rejected one because of his bad reputation as told by other members of mylot.So my question to you will be has anyone asked you to be his friend?

Hi, Don't be afraid to ask for friendship. It is such a sweet thing to have friends. I often get requests for friendship and I do accept them as my friends. I really feel accepted. I never felt that the other person is intruding. So, remove this thought from your mind and go ahead in making friends. Nothing is as sweet as a sweet friend. Take care and regards ...

you have a good star and rating so you are doing ok..the friend thing is very easy to do..as its all things to different people..do we really consider the people on here as "friends"? well, maybe..but it is an over used word..like "LOVE" and others..it can be real..but too often spooken without much real thoght or effort..but then again to some it is a very serious thing..i feel sill sometimes but I think I have a thick skin and someone sooner or later will prove me wrong and i get my little feelling hurt...goood...as pain means you still do have feelings although it hurts..its better then being numb to any emotion or feelings..thankz

maybe you can start to make friend with only one person. But be honest for the first time, don't try it with a girl that make you crazy. Just make a friend with someone on your area of your activity. Let say on your working area. Find someone older that you, try to make a discussion on something about jobs. Just do it everyday, and without you realise, you already interact personally with the person.

Well it is a forum meant for friends and everybody who comes here knows that and prepared to to react to the call as a friend.So I think that there is no problem in asking for friendships and I don't consider its intruding.By the way will you be my friend?

Oh thats ok..I don't invite people to be my friends as well. I just don't have time to go to others profile since I really just came here to work on discussions and get paid. I am a very friendly person though don't get me wrong but that's just my reason. I have lots of friends here already though they added me and I never let anyone down and I accept all who asks to be my friend. :)

I believe you have to muster up courage to request friendship here. Because it is very important to have friends at mylot. One of the reasons why we keep posting discussions here is to know how our friends would react to them, eh? Moreover, your status here will also improve a lot with the help of a few good friends :)

Don't be afraid to be pals on here! I just added you as a friend dear and I do hope you will be mine. I find this place a very close group of people and most everyone is very friendly. Hope to chat soon Vicki oxoxox

you may think you are silly but i think this is the best(not asking for being friend) because in a friendship everything must be naturally without asking for.this is the best way of making good friendships.
