What are friends, anyways?

[aingael]

I recently had someone I know comment on a friends journal that they couldn't reply to my entries because I have made it friends only and requested that I add him. If for some reason you are not on my friends list, but would like to be let me know. I opened this entry to any comments. I will try to add anyone I know, but start flaming me for any

Friends only vs. not...

[pktaxwench]

There are times I was tempted to "friends only" my journal, but didn't. Even when Reese started posting, I never did, because it was not only fun to watch her make an ass out of herself, but let everyone else who frequents my journal see it too. (Her posts are still there, for posterity, waiting for her to answer the real questions people asked her.) There are several TGers who flit by occasionally but don't have LJ accounts. To 'friends lock' would exclude Christine H, Leanne, Sommer, a few others I can't remember, and my mother

I can usually ignore what people say if it is stupid, ignorant, or otherwise. I just go sick of it. People who had no clue what was really going on in my life decided to give me their input or tell me what a horrible person I was for what I did or did not do. Just because I can take it doesn't mean I have to. Anyone can read my journal if they want. And I could change the settings so it would accept all postings but screen them by me first if they were not on my friends list. I just don't want to waste the time dealing with the idiots. As to who I am avoiding, no one in particular. Just all the people out there who think they really know who I am or all about my life when in truth they have no idea at all.

And though I do not agree with everything you said, mainly because I was not around at the time of the "occurances" and I refuse to form an opinion, no matter what people tell me, about something I did not witness, I will not delete the comment. You actually have a clue about what's going on in my life. ~smile~

All I can say is thanks.

Yeah, you and Kristi, who appeared in the TG world after Hoggetowne 2000, you missed a lot of drama. Lucky you.

[theatrekristi]

Are you ok?

[aingael]

beyond the normal stresses, I'm fine.

[theatrekristi]

OK, I was worried about you.

[thesaj]

A friend...is someone who still loves you irregardless of what you do or don't do!

[aingael]

Very true. Sometimes it seems as though I have very few true friends.

[thesaj]

That may be true....

Just don't ever let that fact bring you to the point where you close the door on those willing to be your friend.

((((((HUGS)))))

[foreverose]

true friends are hard to come by, but some you'll find to be diamonds in the rough... ~hugs~

[foreverose]

mind adding me as a friend?

[aingael]

already have. for some reason I have been unable to change this to allow all comments so far, so right now it is only friends posting. I will try to fix it today.

[foreverose]

I saw that. Thanks.

good ol times

[bennieray]

Yeah, I've tried to write before but I too was unable to get through due to the non-friend add. Thought I would write and say hey, I haven't heard from you in soooo long. I go to UNF now. It's okay. I'm not sure if this went through or not...o well, Hope to talk to you later,

~bennieray

o yeah...add me please, hehe

Re: good ol times

[aingael]

Sure thing. How are you liking UNF? I loved the school, though I hated Jax. Still, I've been tempted to go back.
