Silly question....

What does it mean when a fellow poster became my friend? I like friends! Can you explain the purpose to that? Does it mean they can follow my posts or what? I don't have a clue!

With all that said ~ I'm honored that someone who posts so sweetly wanted to be my friend! Thank you! ;-)

    Well, I have no clue, but it's very nice! That's why I wondered? If my new "friend" is reading, I just want to say HI! **waving**

I have several friends so we can write each other and track our progress

How do you friend someone?

How do you friend someone?

Its easy! Just click on ther person's profile picture to go to their profile page. In the upper right, there are three buttons. The first button says something like, "Add as Friend" or "Send Friend Request". Just click it and the person will get a request! Easy, cheesy! ;)
