| Sometimes I am still puzzled by this. I had been on this site for several months, and knowing by reading other posts, I realize that most people say that they don't respond to winks, they would respond rather to emails, in which I understand. I respond to pretty much all types of contact, whether it be a wink, friend request, or email. When it comes to looking for people on here, I am a little aggressive. If I see a woman's profile, and if I find it very interesting and something that I am attracted to, then I would send a friend request and/or an email.
If they accept the friends request, I try to start a conversation or break the ice in some way. If not, that is ok, and I just move on.
What happened to me not too long ago is a woman sent a wink to me. I read her profile, and sent a wink back, and added her as a friend. She accepted. I sent her a couple of emails trying in a few days, and she still hasn't responded after a couple of weeks. This isn't the first time that happened to me, and I am pretty sure this happened to anybody else on here as well.
My point is that I believe that if you send somebody a wink, or a friend request and they accept, at least send an email and try to get to know them if possible. Don't send a friend request and don't talk to them anymore after they added you as a friend.
I am on here to make friends first, and more if something develops. Not here for a popularity contest.

| I think that if you were looking for popularity, you would be on MySpace. Anywho, it's cool to be on here just looking for friends first. If the chick hasn't responded to you in a while, maybe she just hasn't been on. You can check to see if she received your mail by checking the mail that you've sent through your inbox. If she hasn't seen it, then you know she hasn't been online. If she has seen it, then maybe she decided that she wasn't interested and isn't woman enough to tell you and just chooses to ignore you. Either way, you'll find some good friends and some bad ones. That's life!!!! You will be lucky to find a few true friends. Most people can count them on one hand. I can count mine on one finger.........the only person I know that has been there for me through it all and even he has disappointed me. Still love him though!!!!!! People really do need to speak what's on their minds. How can you be true to anyone else if you can't be true to yourself and vice versa??????
Hope that helps!!!!!

| That's true. I do hear that a lot of people don't have too many best friends. It does help quite a bit. I just wish more friends actually try to be friends if want to be friends, instead of just trying to be popular. But not everybody will be friends with one another!
By they way, that friend was on yesterday

| A lot of people have problems with a lot of other people. See, I'm the type of person that can get along with anyone as long as they can get along with themselves. I only have problems with people who affect my children's lives or their safety. Anyone else, I'm good.
