Would that be weird????? - August 19th 2011, 03:59 PM

Imagine, you are browsing through some profiles and you find one interesting. Would it be weird to PM him/her? I wanna make some friends but I'm kinda shy. I'm pondering over what others will think and all that so I never get things like making friends done. So I was wondering, if PMed someone a hi, would they consider it as weird?

Ah no, not at all Kavitha! That's what we're all here on this site for, to make friends and to offer and recieve support from the people on it. I'm sure you'd make someone's day if you PM'd then because you thought they were interesting! Give it a go

I have not found someone like that. I just thought of it and I am shy. I thought it wouldn't be a big problem online but turns out, it is.

I don't think it's weird at all, and on a forum like this, it's welcomed. I get so excited when I see a notification for a PM or a comment on my profile.


Now that we're here, it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
An' all the mistakes one life contained
They all finally start to go away

How can I be lost?
If I've got nowhere to go?

It's not weird at all. I like it when people PM, VM, or add me as a friend because I feel too shy to go on the chat room and make friends myself but I like to talk to people. xD

What's the worst than can happen? They don't respond back? They ignore you? So what. Move on to the next person.


Knowledge is half the battle.

I also don't think it would be weird, I for one love when people talk to me randomly
And as said above, if they ignore you then just try someone else

People post the information on their profiles so others can learn some stuff about the user. It's intentionally meant to have people understand the user and relate to them, so it would be weird if you PMed someone, said "hi", and that person found it weird. However, saying "hi" to a user via PM isn't weird.

Both online and in real life it's the only way you meet people.

Your first day of kindergarten everyone was a stranger. You eventually made friends by talking to them. No one is born with friends, talking to strange or different people is the only way to make them.

Not even slightly weird

I don't' think it's weird at all. I'm always telling everone they can PM me at any time. I like recieving PMs from anyone, I'm shy too so it helps me make friends.

Like the others have said, it's not weird at all. On a site like this, most people are keen to make friends too, so sending a friendly PM can be a great way to get to know them.
Have fun!


Nothing in the world is
the way it ought to be.
It's harsh, and cruel.

But that's why there's us - champions.
Doesn't matter where we come from,
what we've done or suffered,
or even if we make a difference.

We live as though the
world is as it should be,
to show it what it can be.

Like everyone has already said, just go for it! If you like the look of someone's profile, just PM them, or VM them.
That's how you make friends here.

I definitely do this all the time. xD Sometimes they don't reply, sometimes they end up needing somebody to talk to. Just do it. (: You never know what may end up happening.




You are everything to me. You are my world and my life and I don't ever want to let you go.
If you need anything at all... PM me! You are strong. You can do this.

Nope, not at all. Remember this site is for making friends too so
i'd imagine people welcoming this with open arms; I know I would!
