How can you not check out a profile before accepting a friend request? If you haven't known the person previously, she or he's certainly NOT a friend, Hell, not even an acquaintance in most cases. Checking the profile is one way of vetting the request. A chat or exchange of messages should be involved as well. Your choice of friends reflects on you as a person. I wouldn't want a child molester, for example, front and center on my friends wall. Shakespeare's Polonius had a take on this question--"The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel; but do not dull thy palm with entertainment of each new-hatched, unfledged comrade." Having said all that, today's only my second day on Lush. I've been wrong before, and hey, it's just chat.

Of course. It was 30 years ago and she still pops in to my mind. There's an old saying--"It's better to love someone you can't have, than to have someone you can't love." Somewhere I have an old pre-World War I postcard with that saying. Lots of wisdom therein.
