Can somebody PLEASE explain to me why people go out of their way to friend me here and then out of the blue dump me?

I think I have always been more then supportive of the friends on my LJ.

How does somebody check out out my journal, follow it or my responses in other journals, think enough to want to friend me, and then some time later dump me because apparently I have said something that they can't stand?

Seriously?????

You would have to ask them. We could speculate until the cows come home and still get it wrong. It happens to all of us. I have friended people and then found myself skipping over their entries - so it seems pointless keeping them on my friends list. None of us can please all of the people all of the time.

Agree 100%

Don't take it personally....

Could be a variety of reasons. I've had people "defriend" me because they want his or her life to be more private, or it's time to move on, or lack of anything common.

Who knows.... untill you ask... could be just being done with LJ all together.... hard telling...

thinking of you.

I would never unfriend you!! ♥


It's like Mark is saying though, sometimes you add somebody and at some point you find yourself skipping through their entries. When you start doing that, you often have no connection with that person.
Although, i always think you need to give it some decent time before you delete someone. You often find you have a connection after all and you are happy you didn't remove the person.

still... not thinking of removing you!!!

Thank you. :)

Sadly, I think religion reared it ugly head in this case. This person was much more conservative then myself, and apparently he didn't realize that when he friended me. :o

People are infinitely strange and who knows what drives some of 'em?

Don't let it get to you.

After all, I'm a dyed in the wool leftie and liberal as well as other weird stuff! :o)

My explanation

I use different computers to go online and I did ad people to my reading list casually so that I would not forget where to find their journals.

Then, after some time, I noticed my reading list (as "friend list" is so wrong way to call it in my case)had gotten too long and some entries I just rolled over, not reading them ... and that meant it was time to weed the reading list.

Of course, those people whom I was reading never commented my entries or friended me back, so probably it was different situation from yours.

This is a general explanation, as I have not had this journal on my list, but am friendlists-browsing and thought I should give a possible explanation.

Sadly I think this person let his conservative religious back ground not accept my very liberal back ground.
I am very upfront about my views in my journal, so not sure why, if that is the case, he would friend me in the first place. Oh well.....

Gotta wonder about some people... I knew you were a bit of a "Leftie" & your opinions provide some good contrast. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. People who decide to only be friends with those who agree with them are missing out on SOOOO much & deserve what they (don't) get. You have a permanent place on my "DO NOT DUMP" List.

I'm sorry :/ Like I saw you commenting in here it probably has to do with different opinions or something... never fun to see people not giving it a chance while first really wanting to become friends.

But I can definitely agree that you are very supportive of your friends here ♥

Well you're stuck with me! I don't post any more and comments from me are rarer than sightings of the Yeti, but I'm not going away. So there!

YAY for being stuck with you. :)

because someone didn't bother to go read your profile and see what communities you belong to before adding you to their friendslist.

that is on THEIR little pointy head, and not yours. i have people who add me that i NEVER add back, for whatever reason. and i nearly ALWAYS ask first, because i'm odd like that.

anyway i obviously survived the flu shot/tattoo, even though it took me a full day of "fuck you, not moving" to do so. to the point that al took care of the wee dog most of last night after he came home...and i normally do the majority of the dog care!
