to decide if you want to accept my friend request on FB ?

especially if we have mutual friends and you have been on doing other stuff ?

This is no big deal ,we have a teeny history ...it is a male and that is all Grin

Do these things really have to be thought over SO closely ,if you don't want me don't accept right ?

Or ...do any of you think I am quite mad Confused

Quite quite mad Grin

RuthChan · 09/03/2011 18:47

Yes, definitely reading too much into it...

compo · 09/03/2011 18:47

waaaay over thinking it.

i never realise when i have friend requests unless i actually glance over specifically at the request section.

also, some people intend to respond later and then forget they got the request.

FabbyChic · 09/03/2011 18:53

Well maybe they have already decided not to accept your friend request. And have just deleted it. It doesn't have to be declined.

PlasticLentilWeaver · 09/03/2011 18:57

It you haven't spoken in 24 years, he probably doesn't count you as a friend!

I had no idea there was a time limit in having to accept, and that 5 days was too long. Not everyone looks at their email/facefeck ever day.

LilRedWG · 09/03/2011 18:58

He may have:

  • Already declined (I don't think you get a notification)
  • Be lusting after you and too in awe to accept

or

  • Not have checked his requests.

Either way, you are as mad as a box of frogs. :)

theborrower · 09/03/2011 19:03

LOL - yeah, you are reading too much into it.

Now, tell us the 'history'...

doley · 09/03/2011 19:06

Yes,I think I am slowly turning a bit mad :)

I don't normally have to wait very long ...Wink

So I did do something stalker-ish( just now ) and looked on his page ,it asks if I want to cancel my request ?

Guess he just hasn't done anything ?

thanks all Grin

YABU, I just accepted one from an old school friend, I took a month to say yes.

doley · 09/03/2011 19:19

I think I should just stop being so curious I guess :)

I am not even on FB that much ... which makes me even weirder Grin

I need a hobby ...
