its not in joke as i met my fiancee (almostnormal) through wab.

seriously you are right about not giving out personal details until you are sure about someone - weirdo stalkers material exists out there in cyber space for sure.

Re: Buddies

I`ve got no problem being added as a friend by those i speak to on the forums, or via pm, but cant see the point of people I dont even know adding me just to make their friends list bigger....its happened a few times already

happens to me a lot too - i tend to assume that they are eeyore groupies attracted by my suave manly charm and good looks - but your explanation does seem more likely - damn another illusion shattered.

Re: Buddies

Re. wierdos and stalkers - has anybody noticed the handy but slightly voyeuristic "who's looked at you last" feature on each members profile.

Why did 156 people look at me already - what did I do that was so interesting. Maybe I have Eeyore's animal magnetism or something?

It could be worse - it could show how many times an individual has looked at your profile.....that may prove a bit worrying

I thought of asking to be my friend Pete but as we have went walking together that time I thought we wereAt least I hope so Or you might have got the wrong idea and thought this old granny was chasing you
Oops forgot to mention that Boddie and my friend Jackie was with us so it was two young men and 2 grannies went walking one day
Now I wonder what you lot are thinking now

Re: Buddies

Lol, you think so? I just think of all the nice people who are my friends, not the one person who doesn't want to be despite knowing me for FIVE YEARS in real life (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! - I think he must be ashamed of me and doesn't want to admit to knowing me, I wonder why? )

It is all a bit of light hearted fun really, just like facebook or myspace.

LOL - I can't tell you that! *









*probably because I don't know the answer.

You tell me what you don't know and I will tell you if you are right or not
