Tired of some people on this website.
This is mainly about people I've met on this website and I have talked to. Basically, I'm not as active on here as I used to be. So, I may be gone for a month or 2 at a time. But, I'll usually come back and do an update journal or message some people and see how they're doing. Then I get messages from people saying that I don't care about them or that I just friend them just to have a large amount of friends on my list.
I usually friend people because I want to get to know them or we have similar issues we're both going through. I'm just not as active on here like I used to be and somehow people think me not talking to them means I don't care about them. It's usually because I'm not on this website and have a life outside of the internet that I'm trying to improve and am busy with.
I tell some people that I can be reached other ways besides this website. Most of the people on here don't use the instant messaging programs I'm always on. Or they just don't want to reach me anywhere else.
It's just really irritating that some people get their feelings hurt because I'm busy with my own life outside of the internet. It just makes me not wanna talk to anyone else on this site because more than a handful of people have done this now and I'd rather someone just unfriend me and be done with it, instead of someone telling me my busy life is upsetting them.

I\'m quite a loner, except with support group activity, like this one. Even so I\'m not what you\'d call chatty every day or even on the internet every day. Almost, but when weather allows me to be outside, I\'d much rather be out in the fresh air and sunshine.
So, as I have learned during my life, people say things or do things, maybe to hurt or upset on purpose and maybe just out of frustration or feeling hurt themselves. Being involved in a person\'s life in \"real\" life is somewhat different than being around on the internet and getting to know people. It\'s always best to be kind regardless. Hope feelings mend and whatever is upsetting passes quickly.
You know some folks carry around a phone all the time these days and text and message at every opportunity. I don\'t even own a cell phone or want to be that connected. Each of us is different.
I\'m just mainly tired of people telling this complicated sad story about how I don\'t like them because I\'m busy for like a month.
