Hi, JM, sorry you are befuddled, let's see if we can correct that!
There's several ways that you get friends. One is to watch different discussion posts and if you like what a person says, just click on their avatar and ask to add as a friend. When you ask to be a friend, there's a little bit of room for you to write something. Often, I will point out something we have in common, or something that they said that I like.
If you start posting replies or start a discussion post, it gets other people's attention and they ask YOU to be a friend.
Another idea is to look at the members lists (click on the menu bar on the upper right) and just look at people that interest you. For example, I noticed that you are a 30 year old mom w/3 kids. If you would like to connect with somebody who is in a similar situation as you, with little ones and trying to fight your way through this life with MS, just click on their profile, ask to be a friend.
There's no do's or don'ts, just jump into the pool! You are off to a great start and will have plenty of friends in no time at all!

Hello! I'm new to the site and I'm wondering...how do you add friends? Is there a certain etiquette to requesting friends? I'm pretty clueless!
