Another wave of defriending?

Jun 29, 2009 07:33

Well, that's interesting. Two more people that I always tried to comment, thought we got along in the J2 love area and general squeeing over SPN have defriended me. No warning, nothing. I do try my best to keep up around here, comment all my friends and if they ever want to talk, all they have to do is gimme a nudge and I'll jump online ( Read more... )

*cuddles you*

I really done't understand fandom anymore =( I posted on dean_sam last night and was actually accused of projecting my own feelings about my mom onto a fic >:( I just don't get people...=(

And yep, explanation would be nice, no?

*cuddles* Yeah, me either, I saw that, I was like...wtf?
I'm gonna do that from now on XD make a rule that if and when I feel I've reached the end of the road with someone, I'll drop em a quick pm and just say why, no harm, no foul.

Don't take it personal, hun. There are some people who don't think that friendship is something valuable and not just a spending my time.

*huggles, nods* Thanks for that hun! Even though I've never met people on here, most of them, anyway XD. I still feel like I've got a nice circle of friends on here to share things with.

I didz check mine and you iz still there.... rofl...

Yeah, it is me that mostly defriends, i send people over to slip it in for fics and kinda keep my journal for people who i wanna share stuff with, so i have defriended people in the past.

I have also refriended if people wanted to... i'm not precious... hee hee

But yeah, it isnt nice, it has happened to me and i always wonder why... what did i do?

So, after all this rambling *BUG HUGZ*

*laughs, hugs* Yup, we're still on each other's lists, and I do like getting to know people in their personal posts. I know I don't post that kinda stuff on here often, but once in awhile, yeah. I should finally post some of my pics that I've been saving up ^^.

Hi, JJ! I am your assigned buddy. I just thought I would pop in and say, "Hey" and how excited I am to meet you. This fandom is so huge that it feels really hard to meet and connect with people. I know I have seen your user name around . . . but its all a bit of a blur.

I see you write fic and I don't think I've indulged . . . so expect me to be nosing around a bit soon. I do love fic about the boys. I am so looking forward to getting to know you a bit better.

And I could have written this entry you posted here. I get a little sting of rejection every single time someone unfriends me. I keep thinking I will get used to it, and learn to shrug and not take it personally . . . but five years on LJ, and it still bugs me. *is sensitive*

Oh, and if you check out my journal, I will warn you that there isn't much visible right now. I have privated most of my entries, but there is still some manips up that I made for Big Bang last year so you can at least see what I do.

Hey! *glomps* I did nose around your LJ a bit and friended you earlier, welcome! <3 This is exciting, having a buddy, that community is a godsend XD. I'll comment on whatever I can get to on your LJ, if you want links to my fics, just ask *laughs* it's a little...disorganized around here, I need to make a master post, pronto, and learn to use tags (jeez, I keep saying that, time to actually do it XD).
As for this post *nods* it is a bit of a sting, especially when you can't even fathom why they did it. But I guess I shouldn't let it bother me, right? *hugs* Can't wait, I read your comment to the welcome post, and I hear you're looking for a possible future co-writer too? XD

Hello again. *hugs* Thank you for nosing around and the lovely comments you left me. I've read them, and happy squeaked, but haven't had a chance to reply yet. It is very exciting having a buddy. I've been afloat in this fandom for the longest time and just never seem to meet many new people, so yes--the community and buddy match-up was a wonderful thing for me ( ... )

I'm glad you liked the comments, I love your work *hugs*. You'll have to teach me someday how to use tags XD I suck at it right now *LOL*. So, no IMing huh? *pouts, chuckles* I'm bad for needing realtime feedback or exchange I guess. But we can try the community thing if you like, see how it goes, never tried that before ( ... )

God. People are so... *sighs disgustedly*

It's not hard. I try to comment on what I can, when I can. That's all I ask from my flist. I've never defriended anyone, I hope I never have to.

I love all my friends on here SO much, they are all so amazing, I don't know what I'd do without them. You included.

*hugs you and keeps working on your prompt*

I love everyone on here, all the squeeing over SPN and the Js, and any random thing that comes to mind. I know there's always somebody, somewhere on my flist that I can laugh with and talk about pretty much anything. I guess all we can do is try our best, and if that's not good enough for someone, oh well, right? *glomps*
