I think that because people have commented before on everything that I wrote, and instead of it being something I valued, I stopped caring because they were never saying anything relevant.
That sounds so harsh and I know they did it out of a good place, but to me it seemed like they felt obligated as opposed to actually WANTING to say something, and that's why I wasn't a fan of it.
Besides, blogging shouldn't be about getting comments or being popular. For me, and most people I know, it's just to let everything out and not internalize it anymore. To know someone is reading it, even if they aren't saying anything, and to know that someone knows how you feel even if they can't relate and even if they don't know you.
Anyway, you can't give up. Maybe blogging isn't working out, but there's always other ways to cope with a given situation and there's always a light at the end of all the darkness, promise.
