Go to the persons profile and press the bottom that says make me their friend. After that you can go to their chat box of the person you want to be their friend and tell them to go to your page and add you either one will work....

 Go to the profile page of the person you'd like to add and click on the "make me their friend" button/box at the bottom of the page. The person will see your request when they visit their page and most likely approve. Have fun on Blurtit!

 Try going to their make me their friend box...

 I'll be your friend. :)
