we choose to be friends with different people for different reasons.here at mylot people suddenly request friendship from you and you approve the request only to see they dont even talk to you again,if you are to make a request for friendship here on mylot what will really motivate you to do that?

We seek friendship because no one of us can live alone. Just like the saying "No man is an island". We seek happiness from them, Need them when were down.

I have no problem seeking friends here at Mylot or accepting any friend requests from others here. I accpet them all, but not all of them have accepted me for one reason or another. I like to be friendly to everyone here. I have met alot of nice people here. I have only met a couple of rude ones so far.

Hi BYOLA2871,At the beginning,I make a request no purpose.I want to have more friends in mylot.Now I think we should support each other,and do your best to response your friends' discussion.You should exchange views every a short time.Don't estrange you from your mylot friends.

I do it because I need more friends and I want to know when they start a new discussion! I ask for friendship if the person seems to be similar to me, or I like the responses they give! if I see they are starting interesting discussions that I can relate to, then I will ask for friendship. I do not do much messaging, but will reply if I receive a message! Thanks for accepting my friendship!

Hi byola. On my first day here in mylot, I responded to people's discussions I find interesting then I asked them to be my friends. The reason was I want to establish good relationship with people here. I then answered to their new posts or sometimes old posts that I find interesting too. As days passed by, within those list of people I started to gain virtual friends. We sometimes sent private messages and learned good aspects of life from them.

yes you have a very good intention and honestly that was the best way to go about it i did same thing when i was new on mylot but my problem is sometimes people suddenly dont respond to your posts again aor they simply vanish away from the site,i have had a particular guy who asked me for friendship ask me for some links i gave them to him of course but since then no messages from him not even to tell me how it went

Oh maybe some people get tired after some couple of weeks they spend in mylot. Even myself, there were moments I felt bored and wanted to stop. But somehow I manage to stay active as possible.

dear pharoheiller,i like the question but i am not saying i dont have friends,i do in fact when am not with my family am with friends both on and off line,what am saying is that some of us are good at asking for friendship but soon loose the essence of keeping making the friendship work because we dont keep in touch,do you understand my point now?
