Favorites list of a woman
Posted: 8/1/2005 10:50:56 PM
I use the favourites list to keep track of posters who's threads/posts I enjoy. IE WeekendHuntress. I have no intention of dating/meeting her, she's way too young, and too far away as well. But I like seeing what she has to say. Same with almost all the other people on my favourites list, I like their posts.

Well, unfotunatly I can say that I am guilty of adding people to my favorites list and have yet to contact them. Now dont get me wrong its not that i have no intention to message them but I just have to build up enough courage and then bring it all out and give it my all.

I also think reading the favourites of those you think you might be interested in is a good way to find out what interests them.

I am on some favorites list of people that have never contacted me & some that have. For the most part I take it as a compliment. If someone has me on their list that totally creeps me out I just remove them.

As to why no one has you on theirs, most of us mear mortals tremble at the thought of approaching such a sweet, intelligent, and unbelievably attractive person such as yourself. As for your bf, he's probably still so stunned the he got you he can barely remember to tie his shoes. Oh wait I mean your to far away from all of us and taken too. Yeah thats it. lol

I keep finding that I'm on people's lists. I freaking remove myself. If you can't speak to me, don't add me. Period.

I add people to my favorites list when I find I really enjoy their posts. It makes it very easy to check and see what they have written lately. Some are very insightful, some are funny...I don't REALLY think it's necessary to email someone just to say 'I really like your posts, so I have added you to my fave list, even though we'll never ever date...'
I even used to have a couple of guys on my favorite list until they got the wrong idea and I had to block/delete them...

I only check it every month or so, and If there is someone new on there, I write a short "thanks" and usually I get a nice note in return....I think maybe some people are just being nice, or considerate, and like you to make the first move, or something like that. It has usually been a pleasant experience, and I am always glad I took the time to say thank you. It seems to go both ways, they are glad u wrote to them..

I've enjoyed reading this thread cause I have wondered the same thing...why do they add you and never contact you?

When I first came to POF, I saw a thread about how some people thought that a woman being on a high number of peoples favorites list got around...LOL *rolls eyes* So I would delete myself off of peoples lists so mine wouldn't get too big..Now how silly is that?


I had never thought of the fact....If you are an active forum poster they may add you to keep track of your posts

Now I don't worry about deleting myself off favorites unless they piss me off or are a creep or something, but hey they can just add ya back ...

I'm on someone's list who has never contacted me, I've never seen on the forums, and I can't write to her because of her restrictions. Weird.

I don't check my favorites list to often. And I rarely check favorites lists of men I chat with. I am interested in talking to them, not how many people are on thier favorite list.

I dont have anyone on my favs list because its a public list.It would be good to have if it were your own personal list so you could browse the profiles and save those that you like.I think thats what most use it for so I just look at it that way.I do contact those that are reasonably local that have added me to just say "hello why am I on your list?"
An icebreaker of sorts.

I think ONLY the person you have on your list can see it...

And your profile will say how many has you on their favorites...nobody else can see who

The only thing public about it is the numbers. You can see how many someone else has on their list, but NOT who they are. Obviously you can see who has YOU saved to favorites, but that's not a public thing.

There is also the "delete" button where one can delete the other person who put you on their favorites list.

What I can't understand is why women with the high favorites numbers in their favor don't delete their friend wannabes from their real friends.

I refuse to give anybody an ego boost just on looks alone by putting them on my favorites listing

Check it out!!! You are now on 10 people's favorites list. Amazing. It seems that these posts put you in the spotlight and get people checking out your profile.
