friends cut

Nov 02, 2012 23:57

It's time for the Unpopular 'friends cut' Post. I hate the term. I'm not cutting people; I'm cutting online pseuds I no longer connect with people. I hope that much is obvious ( Read more... )

random, intarwebs, people

I know I'm not about to be cut, but I'm speaking for the majority of people you cut. (not including myself) They think. "Whatever." "Who cares" "Who the heck is mijeli?" "I am sooooo wounded I actually commented once in a useless way, waaaah"

No way I'm cutting you.

Haha, I know. If they even log into LJ anymore. But what do I know what wounds people? I want to make sure, because I'm polite like that. NOT SNARKY LIKE YOU

I agree! I am going to also unlist you due to an overflowing flist - but no hurt feelings! I am happy to see you at least let people know why you're cutting XD Maybe we will run into each other in the future - either way, thanks for letting us know :)

Thank you for this nice comment! I'm glad we agree :) And I do hope we'll run into each other again .. until then, all the best!

You are very nice. I've been thinking for awhile about doing a cut, but have no desire to post a heads up this time. jad's comment is making me rethink that...although I still probably won't :)

mijeli November 3 2012, 13:10:57 UTC

Well, I just want to be respectful :3 Though I realise that a great number of the people I cut won't even care or notice. If you think the people you are going to cut won't, then why make a post?

Anyway, YOU are the nice one! I'm surprised! ;)

Yeah, that's my thinking. It's mostly people that I just don't talk to, or if I do they don't respond. That's really not what I'm here for. There are a couple of people I'm wanting to defriend because I don't want to read their posts anymore, but I'm also afraid I'll hurt their feelings. I don't know what to do about that.

Friends cuts feel just like tidying up the house. Suddenly you can find all the things you care about again.

mijeli November 3 2012, 13:08:30 UTC

Yeah, well put. It makes sense to be able to focus on what matters most again.

(*grin* I like how consequentially you're using that icon in my journal now!)

Well, when you asked so nicely. :-D Besides, I like having an excuse to use it. Because it is Pretty.
