Deriving from Cyndu Younez’s post about Lurkers, my title says it all.
Her post focuses on natural female to male attraction. Face it, we’ve all done it, just like she explains in her post. We’ve seen the hot men or women on facebook or myspace and have taken the risk to add them or poke them hoping for something in return, and when we see a new friend request by some mysterious hot person(s) of the opposite sex on our profile, we feel all flattered and anxious. It happens, don’t lie.
But…is it only me who feels complete annoyance when you get an add from someone of the same sex who you do not know yet you know the only reason they’re adding you is to look at your profile?
For the past few weeks i’ve been getting random adds from females who i really don’t know yet they’re friends with either my boyfriend, my other friends, or they’re just random. Okay. Don’t get me wrong, i like meeting new people…but don’t add me, and then refuse to answer back to my “Hey, do we know each other?” I feel like i’ve been using that line a lot lately. They don’t reply yet we have like 30 friends in common.
I’m sure it’s happened to all of us. You suddenly have a new boyfriend or love interest or circle of friends and you get their exes and other people of the same sex adding you and scoping you out, taking you apart and lurking your profile.
Does anybody else understand what i’m getting at? Augh.
Listen, i don’t care okay. Add me. It’s fine…but tell me who the fuck you are and what your motive is for adding me. Even if you say “oh i donno, just a random add.” that would suffice. Thanks.
Peace.
Query: “Hey… do I know you?”
Response: “No, not really. I’m just lurking your profile.”
Naccs is my hero
This has happened to me like 4 times this week and I feel your pain.
But I think it’s worse when it’s people you do know, and they hate you and you very openly hate them right back, yet they still add you for the obvious reason of wanting to stalk your pictures. That’s creepier.
But then again there is limited profile. I believe I have the majority of my list on that…
