I have been a member for a long time and it never occurred to me to ask someone to be a friend because I had never been asked and was not sure of the protocol. I was on the political forum some and felt like I had caused some hard feelings with a few people including Rob. I have viewed his posts for a long time and liked him but was afraid I had made an enemy by some things I said in the politics forum. A few days ago I offered to find some demon hats for a member and Lo and behold he sent a friend request and I accepted right away and yelled to my wife "I have a friend!" She had no clue what I was talking about. Then another member asked me to be a friend and I thought this is great that some people are asking me to be friends. I got a nice PM from Rob and knew immediately that he did not have any hard feelings but For some reason I did not send Rob a friend request. Then this thread started and I realized that it works both ways and sent him a request. Rob, I feel a lot better now and I think I'm now going send Frankie a friend request. What do you think?
