When you have a friend request, do you try to guess who it will be?

I often do this, I guess. My intuitions are hardly ever correct. I seem to be attracting more younger women from Asia mostly. My perceptions might be wrong. But I like your game. I think it helps strengthen your intuitive powers. We all have them, but they need development and exercise.

Hello lecanis!:-) I have been doing it not since too long ago, just since a couple of weeks. I was not having many friend request earlier and it's just from two weeks now that their frequency have increased and I am always curious to guess who that might be. I figure that it must be someone who either responded to my discussion or from a discussion I responded to lately, but I am not as successful in guessing as you have been. My guesses turn out to be just 60% correct as out of last 10 requests, I could only figure 6. But 2 out of rest of the 4 were out of blue, as neither they participated in my discussion nor could I found them in the discussions I responded to lately. So if they are not to be counted, then my guess would be 82.5% correct!=P

No I don't lol. I don't usually remember who I reply too since I replied to quite a few people each day. I would remember more the discussion if it is unique. But quite often, it is almost the case that it is the first time I am seeing those who send me friend request. I love making friends. Friends are cool. :D

Yes! I do this all the time, heehee. I dont guess as good as you though, it's about like 60% for me if I had to guess on my averages! lol. I like doing it, it's fun! Like a little mylot game..haha. I figured I was the only one that did it though!

Yeah, I usually do but even if Im unsucessful I still add them in the end. (only on myLot though). If it was like MSN then I would only added people i know. But 80% accuracy is good, way better than what im getting.

When I get the periodic friend request I accept them as soon as I notice because I AM OH SO LONELY. I have no clue who these people are because I don't recall ever speaking to them before, and I can't imagine why they'd want to add me as a friend for this reason. I find it hard to imagine them reading some insipid and facetious, maligned anti-perspective I use to either try and get people to really mean it when they try to be idealist or else just to be insane, and then taking my idiocy seriously (which happens quite a lot, sadly) and then somehow thinking I would be worthwhile to add as a friend. I just don't see the reason for ever seriously reacting to anything anyone else says on the internet. I get really nasty complaints in my StumbleUpon inbox for my totally unsolicited rants against unsolicited webpages whenever I challenge the impulsiveness and overzealousness of my generation, or the "angry urban nerd" mentality of internet culture that seems to rest on scorn and spite yet remain so popular these days. Or maybe it's just that I'm a jerk, which seems a bit odd given my serious interests. Think of me as that delightful Chris Ramsey character on the sadly-cancelled but wonderful show Port Charles. Oh, and you can disregard this whole response, please.

I don't try to guess when I had new friend requests. When I first joined the site I did, but not so much anymore. Before I could usually pick it by people whose discussions I had responded to, but I now I usually respond to my friends discussions and not so much from different people.

I do the same thing! I'm usually right too, *laughs* I don't know..I'm getting a knack to be able to predict who'll friend request me..before they do it, now..it is rather entertaining to do that.

I think I am about 50% right on the guesses. I seem to attract younger users and its usually because I answered maybe one of their questions "under discussions with no responses" and then next minute I have a friend request. I have one sitting there right now and not sure how or why he's requesting it.. he is 18 years of age LOL

I've never tried to guess, which is good, because I wouldn't have gotten any of them right! I always go their profile and check them out to see if I can figure out why they requested to be a friend. Sometimes I never know! They don't seem to have replied to any of my discussions or vice versa. I don't even know how they got my name!

Hello,lecanis,i always have new friend requests everyday,hoenstly,if you ask me to have a guess on the friend request,i will be wrong all the time because those people who send me the request may always be someone who i have never came across before in any discussions or comments.In fact,i have never try to guess who is sending me the request as i know i cannot guess it right anyway.

Hi Lecanis... I would say you have an intuitive mind, and 80% correct in your guess....that's great! Well, in my case, sometimes I wonder when myLotter want me to add in their list when I couldn't recall that they took part in one of my discussions. Probably they could have seen my username in one of the responses that I made. I dont guess... what I do is just go to their profile to see where they are from, their age, and the discussions they posted.

80%? that is excellent my friend. i'd thank god if i hit 50& or so. never actually tried to remember who i've replied and what i've blurted out therefore i could easily pass over who might interest add me up as a result (cackling)

I've only had one request, but was greatful for her, Thanks maxsmom.

i have done that with a few people but i dont know that many people so i dont try guessing lol

No I dont do that, it sounds funny. I would always be wrong because I always get requests off people that have never answered my discussions and I have never answered theirs. I dont know where they find me.

Hello lecanis. I had never ever tried to second guess who will be the next one to request for my friendship. Majority of them are newbies or someone whom I never seen nor come across in any of my discussions. What really perplexed me was the fact that after I accepted them, some of them will magically disappeared the following day. I currently have 5 new requests and all of them are not familiar to me.

Wow!! I had never thought about doing anything like that. Good luck with it!
