HotrodLarrys: When You Look at someones Profile, Do You want to see about them only?
Do You want to see Several other Men, or Women, on their Profiles???
What if you know half of them as Friends Yourself, and a portion of them you Dislike.... Or Do Not Know???
I have never Put Friends, and Contacts on My Profile... I did not feel that was Public Business who I talk to...
How Do You Feel about this?????
A Curious Mind wants to know!
I know what you mean and sometimes I wonder about it too but I try to look at it as only virtual friends. Most of mine don't even correspond with me anymore. I would hope that someone isn't put off contacting me because of the friends I have on my profile but if someone happens to take an interest in me and has an issue with who I have as friends, I would be more than happy to discuss it with them.
Well obviously it's a dating site, but that doesn't mean your going to date everyone you make friends along the way...I'd say it's YOUR profile and if you don't want friends on there, don't add any, pretty elementary
HotrodLarrys: Thank You Cc... I have never Done it in the past, and rarely ever looked at them, But Noticed some On their, and Just curious as to others opinions,
I truly Do Not want to Look at a Woman's Profile, and see Pictures of Several Men on there...
But Many Do Have this featured on Profiles...
Why? I'm mean after all your not in relationship with them so why would you care? Just curious...

I don't see the issue. A friend is different to dating someone and until I'm seeing someone steadily, it's my business who my friends are

Welcome Larry That's all I kept getting were men sending me friends requests.I even blocked out ALL locations so men can't mail me anymore.

I've blocked my "friends' function cos I was getting friend requests from people I had never communicated with. But, if I receive a message from someone who is not on the forum, I check to see whether he has any friends that are familiar to me from the forums or blogs as a way of getting some form of confirmation that he is real and not a scammer. Not foolproof I admit, since he may have scammed the forum user, but it's better than nothing.

Thanks For Sharing Deb, I do Understand They are mostly Virtual Friends, Just wanted others opinions!!!! And Not Necessarily a Loosing Proposition, Especially to long time posters in the Forums.. But Some may not be Forum Posters...as well..
Some I have received I have Never even seen Before!

I think we all get those unknowns. Those I just delete without even looking. Quite funny...last night I looked at someone's profile and immediately got a friend request from them
Ccincy: Maybe I read his thread question wrong. I don't see anything wrong with someone having friends in their profile but I choose not to cause I'm not single.
And that's what it should be, all about choice as to or not....but really even "if" I was in a relationship with someone on here, why couldn't I have friends on my profile? It doesn't mean I want to date them...anyways why am I even having this conversation I need to be cleaning and cooking

I delete friend requests from people I don't know from the forums or they haven't taken the time to know me through email correspondence. There are some profiles with dozens of friends listed where I start to wonder if CS is an extension of facebook for them.
unlaoised: I don't see the issue. A friend is different to dating someone and until I'm seeing someone steadily, it's my business who my friends are
Not that it is right or wrong, I know everyone has their own Thoughts about this,
I Rarely every even look at this, But today I see it and Has People on their that I have Talked to, I Guess As highlighted, It is My Buisness who My Friends are too...
Not Intending to make a Religious out of it... Thanks for the responses!
since women started to discuss here, it became a big issue... I know some don´t add me, even when I talk to them everyday. And people who are afraid to have virtual friends usally also don´t have real friends, as they are too scared to show any empathy in public. the only thing that matters in friendship is to respect each other and to promote each other.

Where is it a big issue? The women on here are discussing it because a man asked the question...

That is funny, but a LadyDiz said she has hers turned off...
Maybe I should look at how to turn it off!
Not even sure where to look, But I am sure I can Find it!
