Um..

I know, my comment came in way too late. I just stumbled on your story and I really could relate with you. It just amazes me how people have hundreds and sometimes even thousands of friends in their facebook, friendster, myspace or whatever social network that may be. I am even more amazed when people add me as their friend when the only interaction we have is "Hi - Hello - ( little introductions) - Bye". I think a lot of people are confused with the difference between an acquaintance and a friend. Maybe there should be an acquaintance corner in facebook, where they could level up to friends, depending on their progress, as if they are under probation. Anyway, props to you for being able to delete them. Truly it takes strength to "unfriend" someone and set boundaries.



Cyber "hugs" for you. (Not really a hugger in person, but this i can do)

Thanks everyone for the support, it really cheered me up.



I'm currently feeling much better about things

*hug*

I don't know what to say to make you feel better but I will send you a virtual hug and some heart shaped chocolate chip cookies. Hugs. =)

It will get better, the right people will come along. Keep building yourself up and I'm hopeful the right kind of people will come your way.

OK. So it makes you feel better because you can't relate? I wish I knew how that was.



It's great to have a few real friends, but when you're absorbed in the hedonistic incestuous world that is Brighton, and the music industry, this doesn't happen. Everyone is after something, everyone says they're your buddy, and no-one tells the truth.

im sorry but your story makes me feel better.....may be because i cant relate....i also think we should work on selected connections rather than trying to have hundreds but i also feel that one tries hundred connections and out of that 2 come out to be worthy..

heh. That made me smile. Thanks :)

aw :( *hug*



i'm sorry things are going crappy for you. it's hard when everyone gets caught up doing their own thing. some people come in out lives for a little while, and others decide to stay. :) i worried for a while that human connection was a lost art, thanks to "social networking" sites, etc. but i'm seeing that often, it's better to make a few close, meaningful connections than to work on maintaining a hundred spacey ones on things like facebook and myspace. i want to make my own, combining them all - call it YouTwitMyFace.com. :D



but seriously, i wish you the best, and i wish you several very meaningful connections a year. good luck!! :)

i don't think growth is always comfortable. at least, mine hasn't been :)

It's more of.. finally accepting the boundaries that are already there.



It wasn't a pleasant experience really.

(((((((Hugs)))))))



this all sounds good to me, like you're drawing boundaries for yourself. hugs and best of luck!
