Reminder: Each player can only accept ONE confession from each other character.
Sending one of each type of confession request to the same account is not effective, as they will only be able to accept one of those per Hallowmas. :-)
On the action itself, it says:
"You will need an associate with <requirements> who hasn't confessed to you already."
So while your enthusiasm is appreciated, do try not to become over-zealous when sending these to a single person, k? ^_^
PS:- I've had a couple people send me multiple actions - and although I may have accidentally done this myself - I had one person sent me four of the things, three of which were POSI actions, but I physically cannot accept all of them. (You know who you are, and I'm sorry to waste your 9 action points! T_T I tried sending you a message but FL glitched out, but as you weren't the only one to do it... this post happened instead.)
EDIT: Also, if you would like to receive confession requests from other players, you need the appropriate menaces at 3 or higher.
(I have a few people who've sent me requests, but I cannot reciprocate as they are listed as not having the required Qualities.)

I like to keep a notepad open with a list of all the folks I've sent confessions so I don't accidentally re-send them.

For future years, might I humbly propose an in-game lock on soliciting any additional confessions from the same person?

Yes, if this is manageable it would be SO GREAT, I had some kind of failure to sync my notes program and wasted about seven confessions, which was pretty dispiriting.

Something I just discovered that may be helpful: The search function on your browser (on Chrome at least) will search the entirety of your message queue, so if you aren't sure if you have sent a confession invite to someone or not, you can Ctrl+F their name to see if it shows up. Of course, this stops working so well once your queue fills up so much that it starts pushing entries off.
This does work to a point, but, confusingly, incoming invites are listed by Fallen London name, and outgoing notices are listed by StoryNexus name. If those names differ, you can still miss a person.
I'm just doing the best I can with a complicated text file of my own devising. I'm sure a few people will slip through the cracks, but all manner of thing will be well in the end!

My problem is when I add people I often hit enter sending another invite to the first person on my list. I'm impatient.

Here is the spreadsheet that I made for myself to keep track, if anyone is interested
Warning: It is a Macro Enabled Excel Sheet. I don't have anything malicious coded in there, but you should be aware. (You will also have to enable macros after opening to use the macro, which isn't technically necessary for the thing to work)

I do this as well, but since the Google submission form functions as a good check for people I have already sent requests to,
For simplicity's sake I made a personal copy of the Google spreadsheet that players add their names to for confessions, and highlight the names with different colors to keep track of who I have sent to, who I owe confessions to etc. It works reasonably well.

Yeah, but then you could post a copy of the spreadsheet template and then everyone will end up using it every Hallowmas and praise your Holy, Organized Name.

You already can't get further confessions from the same person if they've accepted a request. If they haven't accepted any requests though, the quality isn't set so it isn't locked.
