Why...

[Saint Valentine]

...do some people find it so easy to just turn their backs on online friendships? Is it any less meaningful to you because you've never met that person? I'm just wondering what peoples thoughts are because it seems I've lost more than one friend recently.

It's easier because all you have to do is to put that person on ignore/block them on IM/MSN. Practically speaking, it is easier than trying to cut someone out of your "real life," but as far as how it rests on one's conscience, I don't know which is really easiest.

Sexxy maybe...but my friends are disappearing like doughnuts at a cop convention. Do I stink?

If someone has a problem with me I wish they'd tell me. I hate losing friendships. Especially ones that I thought were good ones.



Thanks Ruby and Honey. Mmmm. That sounds nice. Ruby and Honey.

A person who turns their back on a friend without explanation is lower than a snakes belly
The snake is sometimes the one who does it with an explanation
Sometimes friends drift apart

So you have some low friends or are paranoid, what a choice

Because far too many people are careless with their words and emotions. Many see "on-line" friends as disposable. Some people talk a good game, but that is all it is to them - a game.
There is nothing wrong with being open to new freindships, and seeing what can develop between you and another. Word to the wise would be to be cautious with your emotions. Enjoy transitionary online friendships for what they are worth. Eventually you will be able to weed through the BS and false people and meet people worth your time and energy. Some take it too seriously, others not seriously enough.

I'll survive...

...it just pisses me off. I'm always completely honest with everyone I meet online or in real life. I don't see the point in being otherwise. So, when I tell someoen ther freindship is special to me, I mean it. I wouldn't say it if I didn't.

 

[capricious_chic]

Ah, but see, that is the tricky part. While you are in complete control of your actions and integrity, you can never truly be able to gauge another persons. Just be yourself, enjoy the friendships you make, and learn to let it slide of your back like water to a duck. People come and go, especially in this medium.

Becareful with whom you chose to share yourself with. Enjoy successful relationships, and don't dwell on the ones that don't work out the way you hope or expect them to.

Saint...

people come and go.... then some have their real life that they have to attend to... sometimes others begin to hate that they are in front of the computer too much.... (catch 22).... others are afraid to allow those feelings to develop for whatever reasons.... there are so many twists and turns why one places another on ignore. You have the answers within you about who you are referring to. Give it some time and more than likely they will bounce back after a while.

Good luck to you.

Peace,
Tulip

It weighed just as heavily on my conscience, once I'd realized how cold I'd been.

It's far too easy to forget that the people you meet online are real, you know?

 

[humonthis]

Huh! and all this time I thought it was normal...
Must be my breath.
