<p>I have some people in my facebook friends list. But I’m always the one who sends out friend requests. I’m sad. Why don’t people ever give me a friend request? :(</p>
<p>Quick questions, answer please:</p>
<p>are you introverted or extroverted?
what kind of person are you?
your personality?
what “defines” you?
who do you consider yourself to be?</p>
<p>answer me those so I can get an idea.</p>
<p>your privacy settings could be set really high so people can’t add you.</p>
<p>Read between the lines?</p>
<p>
I don’t have privacy settings.</p>
<p>are you introverted or extroverted? I’m introverted at school or outside, but I’m extroverted at home. I’m a totally different person at home.
what kind of person are you? your personality? what “defines” you? who do you consider yourself to be? I’m very quiet around people and can’t seem to carry out a conversation with anyone I’m not comfortable with. This is because I’m afraid of the uncertainty in talking with people and I’m protective of myself by not saying much.</p>
<p>Well. There you go.</p>
<p>If you have friends in real life, you’ll have friends on Facebook. And you don’t need to have 1000 friends on Facebook.</p>
<p>Well tod, i think that is because why. you say you’re extroverted at home but outside youre intro. people like to see others who are commanding, confident, have a strong sense of self, those kinds of things. i think you need to adapt a more aggressive or active personality rather than a passive one</p>
<p>Do you project a positive social energy? Are you physically attractive? Do you have a good sense of humor? Are you ‘cool’, exciting, intelligent, clever, fun, outgoing, funny, interesting or fascinating in any way? Notice that people with alot of legitimate friends meet atleast a couple or more of these sought after traits, and also notice that they are very actively using facebook, constantly giving their friends strokes in the form of entertaining comments and messages. Other people may notice your comments on someone’s page and possibly decide to add you… Of course at first, you’ll have to do most of the adding, then, as your list grows you have more potential for traffic and more people to see how much you shine and more people to decide if they want to add your or not.</p>
<p>maybe the people you hang out with don’t like facebook that much,
i know i only go on it when people friend me or talk to me</p>
<p>its all about the profile pics
some scientist did a research, amd not suprisingly, person with sexier pic gets more friend requests lol</p>
<p>
I haven’t uploaded a profile picture.</p>
<p>
I checked each of their profile out and most of them are all active users.</p>
<p>
I don’t project a positive social energy, though I often give out fake smiles which people believe are genuine. I’m neither attractive nor ugly. I’m not cool, exciting or any of those, but I’m shy, which makes me interesting, I guess.
I’ll try adding people first. I hope it will grow from there. But it hurts my pride to have to be the one who does the request.</p>
<p>How does it hurt your pride??? It really makes no difference if you add them or if they add you. This is not life changing stuff here lol. Usually I don’t friend request people until I know them in real life anyway, that way it isn’t weird if I add them or if they add me.</p>
<p>Yeah, why are you putting so much thought into this? You say your socially introverted and quiet, yet you wonder why people don’t add you as a friend? Maybe you should drop facebook so you can put it out of your mind and not get stressed out about it.</p>
<p>The easiest way to get lots of friends on Facebook is to pick an application and make #1 on one of the High Score Tables. I did that with Fighter’s Club and Bloodlines. I had over 2000 friends… </p>
<p>If you want to keep in touch with specific people that you actually know, though, you’ll probably have to find them yourself…</p>
<p>so with facebook, you have two choices:
you can add the other person, which will make him think you’re friendly and/or want to be his friend,
or you can wait for the other person to add you, which gives you an ego boost and the comfort of knowing he likes you</p>
<p>usually i just add the other person because it might actually make a difference in the relationship. and if i’m always the one adding other people, of course they won’t add me…which is why it doesn’t bother me i guess.</p>
<p>of course you’re really in trouble if you add him and he doesn’t accept your request.</p>
<p>p.s. i’ll friend you on facebook if you send me the link :D</p>
