It use to bother me but I've learned that everyone has the right of refusal. I try to be supportive of my Lush friends.

I never ignore a request. I will always reply, and if it is one out of the blue, I will point out the bit in my profile where it says that I like to chat a while before becoming friends, then turn them down. Having said that, I must admit that I'm not exactly overwhelmed with requests.

I've only had one of mine ignored. (Not that I send a lot.)

I rarely make a friend request and when I do its because of some interaction prior to that - forum response, story comment or PM. I have therefore never had a friend request ignored.
Do I ignore them - frequently - mainly from older men who have not read my profile - dont ask unless I ask first.

I have never been flooded with requests. At times I send out requests also. Everything goes with the territory and I don't get bothered by those who refuse me.

I am trying to remember. I think I have had one or two rejections when I sent out a request. I am a sensitive type so I'm sure it bothered me at the time. As for me, I state explicitly in my profile that I accept all friend requests. It does happen on occasion that a friend gets dropped. I have been dropped several times. I have dropped a few. It all evens out in the end.

Does it really matter ?
In the world's harsh wear and tear many a very sincere attachment is slowly obliterated.

That's their prerogative.

Then you do not need them as friends anyway. Their loss!!!

If you're on here mainly to socialise and make friends I guess it can be upsetting, especially if you've chatted with them beforehand. If you're that troubled by it and you have spoken to them before, maybe just send a quick message asking why? If they don't reply just move on, if they do I'm sure they'll have a reasonable explanation. If it's just a random friend request that you've sent out without knowing someone, not having it accepted is not that unusual tbh.

For me, I don't acept random friend requests very often unless I read their bio and think there could be a connection, if I don't speak to that person for a while afterwards I delete them.

If I am interested in them I will always accept. No bio, red and white avatar=laziness...to me anyway. I don't accept either

I'm unclear; is that your opinion of those that ignore requests, or advice on how to win them over?

I've never sent a request to anyone that I didn't know or hadn't interacted with a good bit first, so I don't recall any ever being ignored. I guess you'd call that playing it safe. I have ignored a few that were out of the blue, especially if they came from someone brand new with a blank bio. Otherwise I'll usually send back a message seeing if we can get to know each other or asking them why they chose me. It's worked out well on most occasions.
