First, I think you give wayyyyy too much thought on the approve/disapprove via the internet "friend". This is a world that is new and very detached and not necessarily where you are going to get back in contact with a friend that has changed your life forever although if you are so lucky to get that chance, you should take it. For me there are levels of friendship that I don't want to take up your whole comment section with and therefore hi-jack your blog, but I will say this over the years I have come to see that those old cliches are really true. some friends are life changers and others not so much but every encounter friend or otherwise is something to take into consideration as God placed and to be learned from.<BR/>can't wait to hear more of your thoughts.No(dot dot)elhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10578214325474193322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14167335.post-59091868182088047602008-10-15T19:52:00.000-07:002008-10-15T19:52:00.000-07:00I do not use facebook, but I do have a Myspace (UG...I do not use facebook, but I do have a Myspace (UGH, I hate that I have a myspace) which I acquired for similar reasons. But since I don't blog on myspace, I don't weed people out as much. If people that I knew/know want to look at my almost non-existent profile, I'm not going to stop them-- there's nothing personal there. My real friends know about and have access to my blog, and that's kind of my way of weeding... <BR/><BR/>I looke forward to your sign post. He he he...

I am not afraid to weed non friends out and I am not afraid to hit "ignore" but I still find myself bowing to the pressure at times and confirming someone that I could really give a rats ass about. I'm still working on this boundry thing.RandomSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00266089487669591255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14167335.post-11377511308021602062008-10-15T16:09:00.000-07:002008-10-15T16:09:00.000-07:00The whole facebook thing is pretty funny to me. I...The whole facebook thing is pretty funny to me. I have been thinking recently about weeding out people that I really don't consider "friends". The bad part is that I "confirmed" so many "friends" so that I could look through their profiles, see pictures of their spouse and kids and see what they are up too, but have no desire to have any sort of dialogue with them. I am thinking that is the wrong motive....and just being nosey. The other funny thing is the people I interact with the most on these social networking sites are the ones that live closest to me... and don't necessitate an online relationship:)<BR/>okay, i think thats enough now...laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18043149275606901922noreply@blogger.com
