I'm really shy with that. People have to request me, I very rarely will send a request, even with my own family!!!

same here.
Plus I don't really know who is who on LIF/FB so ....
(I do have few girls on my FB from here and I do know their SN )

Yes, I'm very "shy" in that sense. With LIF-ers and also with people I knew in my past lives.

Re: Is anyone "shy" about their Facebook friend requests?

From LIF- yes. I feel like people don't know who I am anyway, so if I friend request them, they really won't know who I am!

If I'm not sure on a person I won't request they be my friend.. I would want (if I really don't know) that the person just message me and let me know how they know me.

I will often see someone I "know" (usually from here) but then I feel like they probably have no idea who I am so why would they accept me as a friend? Chat Icon Chat Icon



I consider myself shy and yet I friend requested you! LOL

I am not FB friends with anyone on LIF, this damn infertility thing makes me stay anonymousChat Icon Chat Icon

But I am shy with FB requests, I have never requested anyone, other than family. I don't know what it is, I just don't want to seem presumptuous?Chat Icon Chat Icon

i don't know if its shyness, or just laziness, or something else, but i never really send requests on FB.



Same here, and if i get any i tend to hold off a day or so until i can figure out who it is. Then most times, i delete them a few days later, because i get the just trying to be nosey vibe.Chat Icon

Yes. I have a bunch of LIF ladies on my FB and I've either met them in person or they requested me. There are a few I would request but I can't handle rejection. Chat Icon

Re: Is anyone "shy" about their Facebook friend requests?

I request "real life" people without much of a problem. As far as LIF people, I usually let them request me. I don't think most people would know who I am unless you met met at GTGs years ago.

I am only friends w/people I know IRL, with the exception of cple LIW people, who for the most part I now know IRL.



Same here.

I only friend people on FB who I know and have contact with IRL.

I don't accept former students, I don't accept co-workers, I don't accept people from elem. or high school whom I don't remember, heck, I didn't accept my cousin's wife (she's very chatty) until she called me out on it at a family gathering.

My only FB friends who are from LIF are women I see on a regular basis and/or who have been in my home.

No offense to anyone but I post a lot on FB and would rather keep a shorter list of friends for privacy reasons and to avoid potential drama.

Re: Is anyone "shy" about their Facebook friend requests?

I don't normally request friends. I used to accept anyone and everyone who "friended" me, but lately I've become a little more discriminating, only to accept the people that I really know...

Re: Is anyone "shy" about their Facebook friend requests?

I am not a fan of being someones 'friend' on fb if I haven't met them IRL. I do have a few from LIF that I haven't met, but not too many. And most are those that I have some sort of a connection on.

It's too bad FB doesn't have the option to send a note, like:

___No

I'm like this too- I usually wait for others to request me. FB is a weird little world.
