yes agree with that. You see numbers over 600 "friends"
Sadly many really think those are friends.

Some people though write nice poems or note down interesting views and thoughts. It is nice to keep an eye on them, but I think you should message them the reason why you add them.

Helps me remember names so I can check on their posts. Also, sometimes I add people because I'm working up the courage to e-mail them or because I just like the way they come across. I don't really see it as a big deal.

Maybe they thought you were cool, or maybe they want to stalk you. Who knows. only way you'll ever know someone's reasoning is to ask them theirself.

If they are someone I want to talk to I generally do.
As for the friends function I've gotten a few requests...I assume it is the same as the favorites function?
I don't pay that much attention, I'm not here for a popularity contest.  I'm here to learn about the lifestyle.

I used to have three people on my favourites list, but recently I had cause to add a couple of dozen. A few asked why and I told them.

Ya` never know.

Keeping tabs,makes sense.I imagine that profiles w/ pix of pretty girls,get quite a few "admires", bookmarking them.

Yep.

 
I add people like book marks maybe I don’t finish reading a profile so I can read it later. I could probably keep track in other ways but it’s a simple click method I use. Most of the time I never get around to continuing to read though so I have loads of unread people still. Come to think of it I can’t remember the last time I looked at my favourites list. I suppose if you make someone a favourite you come up on the other end as an admirer. It is only really curiosity mostly.

Because (and I have this on very good authority)....at the end of 2008, the one with the most "admirers" will be given $10,000.00 and a trip for 2 to Disneyland.

How, in this instance, could he be hoping for correspondence if he blocked messages before any was attempted?

Adding someone to your favoriates is more like book marking them. It's something about them or there profile that you like. It can also be an informal way of saying hello.
