Thanks, guys!

And yes, Okie, Theo is doing quite well ^_^

Closed my ReconAngel account and am back under my new alias. Didn't want any memories of my ex being tied with ReconAngel.

update tho:

I won my volleyball game last night. Apparently the team hasn't won a game in 2 years.

Yay Deb! Congratulations :) I hope you're well!

I don't get what Miley Cyrus's movement is.The VMA performance was so lame and I don't think she is being herself at all.I did recommend that she buy a tongue cleaner being that she feels the need to always have her tongue out.

Lol Gina

Seriously I felt bad for her in that horrendous outfit she was wearing.Did you see her ass?? Not sexy ;P

No I didn't see the show..

But to change the subject.. I need to get laid. Getting out my little black book now.. Got me some slim pickin's these days...such a shame

LOL I always wanted to do one of those speed dating things.They look fun

What's up with the "friend collectors" on this site? I've gotten several requests to become friends. When I accept or peruse their other friends--it seems as if I am just there to add to the collection. There is no friendship or reciprocal contact when I send a thanks. Is this typical? I've probably gotten 1 a day and not one has ever done anything remotely friend like after the initial request was made.

Color me confused!

@Ginger Blue, YES. It's quite common here, and it's something which I absolutely fail to understand, especially with the folks over at the loneliness support group(but that's another story). I get friend requests from strangers all the time, and I just decline, if I do not know the person. I recently deleted about 3 people from my list. They never say anything, they never respond to my hugs or msgs, but from my home page, I can tell they haven't any shortage of words for their other friends. I don't understand why they added me in the first place, of they had no intention of communicating with me. Regardless of my interest in sociology, and people in general, I'll never understand some of the things people do, and why.

Ginger, I don't know why some people request friendship and then you never hear from them. I usually accept all friend requests I receive with the exception of known trolls and requests from minors. I've had friend requests that I wonder why, I've never seen a post or reply to a post from them, they aren't members of the same boards I'm a member on but I accept the friendship and some I've become good friends with, some I never hear from or see around the boards I'm on. Every now and then I go through my friend list and delete people I don't hear from.

It's like FB, you look at some people's FB friend list and they have friends that number well into the thousands. Who knows a couple thousand people?

It takes me a long long time to accept friend requests...I am leery of trolls and repeat evil returners who like to bring people down. When I was in another group on here there were a bunch of sick people. They would steal photos and post them as their avi's then they would take journals that were meant for only friends. They would post them on open boards, but there was a huge group of crazies over there.. Most finally got booted but would return time and time again. They finally got bored with the bullying or they took it elsewhere.

I keep a small group of friends, all of whom I have had contact with here on DS.

Sometimes I wonder why people friend request me if I have never seen them on the boards before. I don't understand the reason for that, except that maybe it's like what Leather said in reference to Facebook.

Thanks for the insight on the friend collectors.

I accepted a couple but have since deleted because both had the same MO--they were middle aged men collecting middle aged women who were divorced/ing; lonely; and or in the healthy sex board.

Most of "their women" seemed in some state of attention-starved desperation. I have my issues (loads of 'em), but desperately seeking male approval or attention on a forum isn't one of them!

There is a happy green face, and a sad red face, what about the angry face? It should be right below the yellow ok face. Furthermore, the angry face should be red, the sad face blue, and happy orange, or something. Green = sick.

GingerBLue - How do you know 'Most of "their women" seemed in some state of attention-starved desperation.'

Do you know the women? Sounds to me like a bit of approval or attention is needed by someone, but I may be reading it wrong since I do not know you.
