Decline Friendship Request
Is it so wrong to decline a request for friendship? It is unlikely I am ever going to meet anyone on here face to face. The only way a person is able to convey their nature and character is by what they have written on their profile. There is much that be taken from what a person writes, especially in the ABOUT ME section. There is also an indication of their nature and character in the blogs they have created or the blogs in which they have contributed to. There are many guys on GBT I would not have as friends in the real world and I see no reason to have them as friends in this virtual world. I'm sorry if my refusal to accept your request for friendship offends, but please, get over yourselves. If I accept an offer of friendship it's because I have something in common with you and because we have that connection. There are some guys on GBT who have also set conditions to accepting friendship requests, I am doing the same. Please accept my right to do so.
Fearless, thanks for noticing that I do post on my friends walls. Because this is a virtual world it is the same thing I do in my real life. For those I see daily, we exchange greetings and stories. For those in my real life that I don't see as often, we email and text and talk on the phone. Probably daily. So for me, the posting on friends walls is just about acknowledging our friendship here.

When you say there are many guys you would not have as friends in the real world - what are you meaning? you mean old guys? or what?
