I get that sometimes from non-posters. According to some, if you got too many friends on mingle, you are some sort of a "player", or there is something wrong with you. What do you think? Awww here's a big {{{{HUG}}} |

I get that sometimes from non-posters. According to some, if you got too many friends on mingle, you are some sort of a "player", or there is something wrong with you. What do you think? I've heard that before. I'm sure there would be something wrong with a person if they posted a lot in the forums and didn't make any friends. |

would it also be suspect if they have no friends or just a couple? what about if they don't show their friends? |

It would send up redflags to me if someone has more than one page of friends

Ok, how about "you've been here too long". Does that make me suspicious ? Mingle2 is unlike myspace or facebook, those aren't like having a discussion forum. Many people treat mingle2 like 'yahoo personals' or 'match.com'. Basically, some might think, hanging around too long on a dating site makes some think that I might be something like a 'social reject" ? <---------------Wow, Huge social reject here I guess. I have been here since '07. |

When I joined, I thought Mingle was only a dating site -- and when I saw profiles of guys with a lot of 'girl' friends -- I thought they were players.
It took a few weeks for me to realize this is a social site and then I started adding friends as I met them on the forums. |

I have a pretty big friends list ALL FEMALES TOO, but I have not met ONE nor have I attempted to set up a meeting. I'm on here like a lot of folks I keep in contact with to do just that, keep in contact and also to share and read some really great poetry that folks share on this site. But I have had some ladies make comments about my friends list like "you're are a player" or something of that nature.
But hey what are ya gonna do, it's human nature for people to pass judgement on others without knowing the real deal right? |

I get that sometimes from non-posters. According to some, if you got too many friends on mingle, you are some sort of a "player", or there is something wrong with you. What do you think? I think it’s none of their business. I don’t even have mine showing in my profile. My friends are MY friends. If I decide to become involved with someone, of course they would want to know who I associate with. Until then, you don’t need to know. |

I have a lot of friends from here over at Facebook.

would it also be suspect if they have no friends or just a couple? what about if they don't show their friends? I just sort of followed along with not showing friends list. Seems like the thing to do. |

That's why I don't show my friends list on my profile. I don't want people getting the wrong idea. I didn't even know I could disable showing them. But anyway I won't disable it. |
