To be honest I don't really interact with friends on here. I don't actually have any true friends on here. I do have some people of which I know of but thats it. My friends left mylot ages ago so I have no one to reply to my posts =(. Made me think that I want some friends. =\

ya i can understand, we cant have anyone as friend to whom we dont even know them n seen them. but here we have added a few people in the list of friends n when they open their mylot page they can see their friends started the discussions n replied to others but the people seeing that they just refuse to reply to that post or just doent look at it. that was my actual meaning of the question i asked. how about u, do u answer the discussions of the people u added as friends?

No, just like you only a few respond to my discussions and just like you i wonder why in the first place they asked to be included in my list of friends. anyway, I try to respond to my friends post as much as possible . I have requested to be notified whenever any of my friends post a new topic for discussion.I admit though that sometimes my responses are delayed since i am too busy at work and can get to mylot only late at night.

Don't feel too bad about it. They might just be too busy to respond. Who knows they will sooner or later find some time to respond to their friends.

ya, from a few days i was just thinking this, whats happening the friends whom we have added here can see our discussions on their front page n then to they dont respond. like u i first have a look at the front page the dicussions started from friends n if i find it interesting i respond to them or if i have anything to write to their dicussion i write n respond to the discussions n then i look to the other general discussions made by mylotters.

I have a lot of friends on here; or should I say a lot of people on my friends list. I don't check to see who responds to my discussions; friends or not as long as someone responds thats all I care about. To me it doesn't matter who it is. I do try though to read as much of there discussions as I can, and try to respond.

i really agree with u n even i dont care who is responding to ur discussions but the question running in my mind was the people u have added in ur friends list view ur started discussions n not all on mylot n hence how come they dont respond to their friends discussion n that set. adding friends is an advantage coz they view their discussions first n then too most of our discussions r not answered by them.

I have many people in my friend list. No, not all of them respond to my discussions. If they did, it would be awesome. Some of them are not online at the same time of day as me. I don't worry about it very much. They know where I am if they need me and I know where to find their profile pages if I need them. I post comments on their profile pages and leave them little notes sometimes. There are ways to stay in touch without the discussions. Also, some members are not very active.

ok it means that u have the friends on mylot whom u know personally, is it? or u have made friends from mylot n then they know u personally now? even i feel good if the people reply to my discussions whom i have added in my friends list, but they dont do so n if they do its very very rare.

I think what you say is true. I feel the same. May be some people do not look at the discussions started by friends. Its true with me too. I rarely look at the discussions started by my friends but instead jump to the topic of my interest and start reading and responding to the posts there. So may be this is the reason. Some times coincidently when I find a discussion of my friend matching with my interest I reply. Even my friends do not participate in my discussions. Only a few of them do.

may be its only due to varying of interest, and thats the reason they dont reply to their friends discussions and like you just find something interesting in other topics even they might be doing the same and thats why all friends discussions are not responded.

Most of them do not, but I find regulars here answering my discussions a lot. I am not sore that many do not respond as their interests differ and when ever I post a discussion that interests them they do respond. I like all my active friends here on mylot.

may be what u have told is one of the reasons for not answering the dicussions. i agree that the different people have different interest n if they dont find one persons discussion interesting they move to other one which they like it . yes it happens to me also sometimes.

Well, my friend we cannot ask or request our friends to give responses to our discussions.It is their choice whether to response or not to.Sometimes it may also happened that they might have added lots of friends and find it difficult to answer each one of us.Some discussions they may not have find it that much interesting so prefer not to give responses.I have added lots of friends.But,I don't expect that they should be responding to my post.If they would like to,then I am happy and thankful even if not,I still am glad to know one of the myLotters and I move on with my discussions.So,stop counting how many of your friends have responded to your discussion,instead just try to post meaningful and quality discussions and you would be appreciated.Take care and thank you.

i need to follow ur advice i think n its better stop thinking all this n just write n respond to the discussions whatever i m interested into. if i can think of writing here can gain me something. and u r right that we should not expect anything n i really do that , it was just a thought in my mind which i wrote it here so that i can get different point of views which can answer my question in a better way. anyways thanks.
