    I've asked that question a few times, myself, and even recommended to members that they give people a reason to want to add them.

    I think for me personally I find bbm groups safer. I gets some shady guys the majority of the time. They will say things like, "I'm alone now I can talk. " or other stuff that I get a bad vibe. I'm married, not looking for anything but friends. I'll talk but not with guys like that. I know there are a lot of nice people on CB but I think the creepy ones make it harder.

    Well I will friend them and then soon after they will say things that make me feel awkward or like they have another agenda after I already told them I'm married. I think it's pretty obvious after that.

    The bright side is, you can just block them.

    Or they say accept anyone, when in reality they don't. Some people work and can't talk 24/7! Or if your older they figure your a perv or worse!! Seriously looking like bbm is in the crapper!!

    Actually I lied. I forgot I was in one for a few days but I felt I didn't fit well, everyone in it seemed to be a professional and I'm just a laborer. Sorry for the lie.

    Agreed had one young lady assume I was single and when she stopped small talk soon went into wierd uncomfortable territory and I told her to have a nice day and promptly deleted her. With comments like "you could nurse me anytime it really tries my patience.
    I mean if your looking to hook up or go to bars which is fine they would save themselves a lot of time posting that in the message.

    Maybe they are very shy and when you confront them they freak out.

    If you're up for talking, you can invite me, if you feel that I am making it hard for you, you can always delete me. 2B3E199A

    Adding people you don't know in BBM is like meeting someone you don't know. The majority of the time nothing really happens or you end up with some sort of weirdo asking for money or worse.
    Of all my spontaneous BBM-adds, only two have lasted to become BBM-friendships.
