Fewer Friends than my Friends have? GOOD!!!
First of all, nobody gets friended by me unless I actually know them.
Which means I don't have a single unknown-faced sycophant in the bunch.
Just because you made a comment on a public posting doesn't mean you're my friend; just that you're an information customer of mine. "Thank you very much for your comments, kind or otherwise."
Secondly, I never friend someone unless I want to talk to them. I've gotten more than my share of friend requests from people who have nothing I want to hear from or talk to. Paying for college bills for two boys certainly doesn't leave any extra for me to be a "sugar daddy". even supposing my wife would let me. lol.
