Third time changing this entry :)  

This WAS a drama filled post about why this journal became friends only but after talking to person in question I realized that I might have jumped the gun so changed it just in case I did.  I will stick to my plan to keep journal friends only just in case my open journal entries were adding fuel to a fire.  And that's all I'll say on the matter :)

*hugs* You know, this is your LJ, so you should not have to worry about what others think. If they don't like it, they should leave.

But I think a Friends Only LJ, is a good idea, I have done it myself. Anonymous comments are quite creepy in my opinion, especially when it comes to posts that are not fandom.

I always love to read your entries and I never felt offended. :)

Don't worry about it, if people defriend you. Most of the times, it has nothing to do with you personally. Just an example. Maybe they have friended you, because of a certain topic. Maybe you don't talk that much about it anymore and so there is no reason for them to stay. Or their friendlists are too long and they sort out those people who are not much active lately. You haven't posted that much over the last few months, so you could fall into that category.

Friends come and go, that's life. Especially on LJ, were the term friends is a much looser concept than in the real world.

I talked to one of the persons in question and that's what they said. This being my first LJ I took the friends list kind of seriously. It ended up being a misunderstanding on both our ends so we left the issue amicably.

I still have a lot of growing up to do and this was a good lesson to be learned. I need to not take things so seriously. Good points about not posting much and different fandoms and I'm glad you liked my entries :) Your words were just what I needed to feel better :) *hugs*
