The dreaded banner...
I write a lot about my life here, so I just dont want close friends reading without me knowing. Just send me a message and I'll look through your public entries, info, and whatnot and see if your a crazy stalker or not. Bet on being added.
I know this lowers my chances of people friending me and reading my stuff, I myself lurk a bit before friending someone.
But!
If you don't like me you can always unfriend me. This is not a commitment, I swear. We don't even have to talk! Comments on journal posts are not necessary.
