I Don't Add People to My Circle Just Because They Add Me

Why when someone becomes my fan and I ask them why that some take offence and most never answer?

I really do want to know and I think it is wise for them to know why they became my fan as well. It helps reduce unnecessary unpleasant...

I can't see why should I, and I'm not excepting everyone who I "fan" to add me as a friend. To me the thing about adding people is that it is easier to keep up with what they have written lately that way. People who seem to have...

I sometimes wonder, why did this person join my circle?
When members 'friend' me I check out their profile. No profile, no add.
I check how long they have been a member, then I look to see what trophies's they have for commenting. If...

I have been getting a lot of fans lately and requests to be added to my circle. Ii hope no one gets offended, but I do not add a lot of people.  I look to see if you are brand new, if you have stories, if you have experiences that we...

I like to think of myself as openminded, but I don't add people whose only groups and stories listed on their page is about sex.

If I see a couple of groups or stories I might find you interesting and add you.

There must be more for you and I to enter into a cyber type of friend ship here.
It is very flattering if you check out a photo, all tasteful, no legs akimbo from me, nor the time or the place,or have read something I have written from...

I get a fair amount of friend requests but I don't add people to my circle just because they add me.If we have nothing in common I won't add someone.  If they never comment on a story of mine, I will not add them.Also, if the person is...

Im going to have a limit to my friends list like a lot of girls on here do so yeah, just be yourself and i might just add you :)

I take my personal safety very seriously. And there are some characters around here that I will keep at arms length if i feel like it. I don't care if i offend you for not reciprocating the gesture. I am not here to please random...

I'm not on EP to create the biggest friends list. I want to meet people I connect with, share experiences with and have fun with. If you want to add me to your circle?? Before you send me a request, read some of my stories...look at my...

There are several vacancies in my circle of friends, since my recent drastic cropping.
If you wish to apply you will need to have:
1. A full profile.  
2. You must have written at least one story.
3. You need to have read a few of...

Why not comment my stories or something first?  Get to know someone before you just add them to your circle.  And like most of the other females in this group, I'm more selective with males.

By no means am I saying everyone is a troll. This is actually a positive message.
Some think that just sending an add 'gets you in' to my small circle.  Nope.  That sounds too much like facebook behaviors.
Please communicate in some...

This might just be an online community but to me there are things I am not going to deal with and people whom I am not going to add to my circle.
Don't be so darn offended. Add me if you feel that we would get along and you think you...

Ni Hao, people..
Thanks, EP for providing a forum for us. I know most people here are cool but there's always wolves among the sheep. I wouldn't mind having friends but the real meaning of friendship is lost these days. Everyone is...

I used to have another profile that simply grew too big for me to keep up with.
As flattering as it is to have thousands of "fans", I would rather like a small circle of people that actually has special meaning to me, and have time to...
