    But l only add if we have met or chatted. So yes l have met 90% of those on my friends list. And many more l have met that are not on it. So no strict rules apply aside from the meeting but. I sometimes explain that to those that message and request, l sometimes just delete it with no explanation. Some people just collect friends. Each to their own but you are in charge of your profile so do what you are comfortable with.

    I get a lot of random friends requests too. I also have the rule though that I won't add someone unless I have met them, or at least talked to them at length and have intentions of meeting them. I am not sure what the appeal is to have hundreds of strangers in one's friends list? Maybe some see it as making them look better???

    Very common. I’m not too sure why some people send random friend requests, saving profiles for future reference? Bump up their status? You can choose to ignore or accept. Most of my friends I have met or have an online friendship only. Not sure for others sometimes. - Posted from rhpmobile

    To elevate their popularity.... Lots of friends gives the appearance of being attractive, popular...and let’s face it, who wasn’t wanting to be with the popular person in school?? Unfortunately it’s a flawed logic in adult life... - Posted from rhpmobile

    When I joined for the first time a few years back. I sent a lot of friends requests. The simple reason was that on most dating type sites friends requests are just like a flirt. Took me a while to work out it wasn't the case here.

    Will always get flooded with unsolicited requests, its not unusual at all. Facebook, insta, SC, RHP, its all the same. Females get bombarded. nothing new here.

    Some people do it to follow you in the forums too. Some are just pervy devious creatures like me. 😁😛 Each to their own. Just think of it as a compliment. It is cyber world afterall. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Maybe it's the old adage of the more friends I have the more self esteem I build. I've seen profiles with hundreds of friends on them, surely you wouldn't interact with them all. Mrs Gamer

    While looking through one of the lists for an event I think I accidentally friend requested someone who I hadn't met and hadn't even looked through their profile. I'm sure that happens a lot

    Quoting 'MrsE_Hotwife' Good for their egos perhaps--Makes them look popular and special. I noticed one lady I am interested in getting to know has 66 friends---how am I going to get her attention ??-she must be so busy. LOL . I get a lot of random friends requests too. I also have the rule though that I won't add someone unless I have met them, or at least talked to them at length and have intentions of meeting them.

    I use to have over 100+ friends. All of whom I have met not just once, sometimes a few times and more. I have no need to say why, I just did and have. I think opinions about self esteeme issues are unwarranted. However they are of course you opinions. You have probably checked my profile and noticed I only have a handfull of friends. Some I don't even know. Why you ask..... fuck knows really. Does it matter....nup, not in my view. Haters are always going to hate. Just how RHP rolls. - Posted from rhpmobile

    When you friend someone here, what does that mean from a technical standpoint? Can they now see your private pics? See who you're messaging with? More? Less? - Posted from rhpmobile

I don't think there is any more than that though???

But all those thing happen to anyone that has you on their hot list or favorites. Or Stalking list......

    Was from a Nigerian woman, who was a bit suss, that's just my sick sense of humour.Other wise I prefer to put people on my favourites list, their posts and other stuff comes up on my feed page and no one else knows who's on it.

    We never add anybody to ours unless we’ve met them in person. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Strangely I've had two friend requests this week. The first from a younger, single, god fearing American woman, she's just going to love this atheist. The second, today I just don't know as her profile is unavailable for my viewing... What the 🤔
