I apologize if this has been done in recent history, my searches couldn’t pull anything up. I recognize that many (if not most) people use Facebook as a supplement to their real life social network, that being its original purpose and all. That’s cool if that’s you, I’m not trying to draw you out here. I know there are lots of people like me out there though, I love having lots of different people with different stories and perspectives to bounce off of. When it comes to fishing for potential Facebook friends who I would enjoy I really couldn’t ask for a better pool than this one. I also enjoy having a large platform for whatever it is I want to share, I sure did have fun with today’s avalanche of red squares. So if you feel the same way please put your link here and add everyone else who does the same. It’s probably a good idea to put SDMB in the friend request message, and please tell Facebook that you know whoever tries to add you so that they don’t block anyone’s friending privileges. I’ll start, and I hope to make some new friends! [https://www.facebook.com/Cyclopticxander](https://www.facebook.com/Cyclopticxander) ---

There’s an SMDB Facebook group with a long list of usernames/real names. You could check it out, if you’d like. That’d be one way to connect. ---

I sure will, thanks. Under normal circumstances it’s rude to just friend request people unprovoked though, so this thread still has a purpose to me. ---

I just sent you a friend request. I have a lot of Dopers in my Google+ circles, but only a few on FB, and I would like more FB friends. [https://www.facebook.com/rebecca.suaso](https://www.facebook.com/rebecca.suaso) ---
