I'll do my best
So I posted my code earlier and have got a lot of new international friends, thank you very much! Anyone that has sent me an egg I'll do my best to send you one too, definitely hard to keep up with due to caps on gift opening and sending. If you don't get a gift from me today I will try to send one to you tomorrow. If your buddy does not have where your from I won't be sending you any gifts, thanks to everyone

All you're doing by adding a bunch of friends that you'll never meet is slow down your progress towards getting a best friend. If you have 60 friends and can only deal with 20 of them a day then you'vd effectively tripled your time to make a best friend. or, it's now 9 months instead of 3 months.
Most of your higher level new friends will figure this out shortly and you'll not be doing much with them. I know I am not. I'm concentrating my daily 20 gifts on the same 20 people. If I have extra or overlap I'm just moving down the line of familiarity.
I can see that. My reply comes across as selfish because I see the friend feature as a tool to maximize the efficiency of the game experience. By friending the 70 or so local players that I have known over the past two years. Another 100 or so to get eggs from overseas. So we're coming at this feature from different perspectives..
If you're biggest priority in friending people is to bolster your self esteem then it's understandable. Most of us aren't so lonely in our local community of players.
Your approach to the friend feature is a bit more flowery and casual than the players I am surrounded by. Maybe we could learn a thing or two from you.
