Friends at Datehookup?
by wardog007 at 10/11/2009 7:05:12 AM


Not long after I posted my profile, I had three request for friends. Which was cool, we all like to have friends. However, these request came from strangers one of which has never replied or sent any form of communication since. Then an in true life friend was found here on DH, and I quickly asked to be her friend. So I am wondering; what is the real deal with this friend status? Blazerbabe is for sure a true friend, we were friends already. Two of the others I believe want to become friends, the third I am assuming just wants mega pictures of friends on her profile. Maybe I'm wrong only time will tell. My question is this. Should friendship status be granted cart blanc, or would it be rude to reframe until a friendship actually developes? I would like to know your opinions.

I have WINKS turned off and think some people use FRIENDS REQUEST as an alternative.

I personally know almost all on my friends list. I have the maximum 100 Friends DH allows. I have added a few people that were constantly e-mailing me for advice. (I'm a Counselor.) I added them to make it convenient for me to e-mail them. Your friends appear in a drop down list when you send a new message. It does make it easier to get their chat name spelled correctly so you can send mail. I get a lot of friend requests. If it is someone I am close to then I review my friends and those I am no longer in contact with I delete. Some people have multiple profiles and send a friends request with each one. Good luck on your journey here at DH. Jan
