I am removing my entire friendslist. Please no one be offended, my lack of attention resulted in offending someone close. This prompted a step I've been thinking about a lot since my last recovery. I want to be equally available to everyone on DS, and having a friends list in my mind isolates people. I consider all of DS my friend. Love you all

OR you can add every DS member to your friends list...although that would take a lot of time I think

wouldn't it have been nicer to send out a mass PM for those that dont live on the boards all the time?

This is like a huge bulletin board, why wouldn't people post info here?

likely no one will notice really, I've not been great with talking to my friends much. I'm sure a lot think I'm pompous anyway. I really don't care anymore though. I've been hurt way too many times that I've realized friendship is just as temporary word on here as I do is in real life. with the flick of a key you can be called just about anything and that's all they need it the accusation and your done.

Ok, what's wrong? This does not sound like you at all.
No, really, I'm not joking.

I think it rude to do and to make a public announcement about... you seem to "clean house" quite often Chuggs...

deleted_user 06/08/2008

Some people on my list have been there since I first came to DS, so this is big shit. I'm not doing this for any other reason than I want everyone here to be on the same level with me.

crzychick 06/09/2008

I did it once when I was thinking about leaving DS. Not because of anyone here but because of my private life.

I've since gotten my friends back. I respect your choice. If you change your mind please re-add me. ((HUGS)) you have never offended or hurt me.

Hey, your my pal whether your foot is in my friend's list or not. I know several of us that have cleared our friends list for various reasons.
I've done it a few times. Once because I went crazy, took too many meds. and got drunk. At least your reason sounds better than mine. It's your foot, walk the path you want!
still friends,
Tamara
