i will IM you next time I see you on <3
you're one of the exceptions
because this is how i talk to you, i wn't drop that
right now just having a plurk I post to is a high trigger for my depression
the site make a living out of telling you your flaws, for one
like "post thing that are actually interesting, so that people will like you"
doesn't think "interesting" is the right word, it's just whether people can relate to what you're saying or not; if they can't relate to the
plurk then it's hard to comment on it, you know. It isn't about liking a person or not. I can think someone is the most awesome person ever,
but if a lot of their plurks are things I haven't experienced or am not so interested in or whatever, then I won't be able to say much to
^ this exactly
those plurks, I can only wait around until they say something that I *can* relate to, and then chat with them on that one, ya know.
or you think someone's awesome but you don't know them well enough to feel like you can really comment to their problems...
without making some uneducated guess comment and it comes off like "oh sorry for ___" bandaid-slapping
Yeah, that too. It's hard to jump in with new people, I almost feel like I'm intruding.
what it is that it should bypass? If you mean my "intruding" comment/
orhaldi's about knowing them, it's really not the fault of the media,
it's just that it takes time to get friendly with people, especially when lots of people have tons of friends & their own little "cliques,"
it's not that they try to exclude others, but since there's already that dynamic among them it can be hard to jump in as an "outsider."
agrees, but that doesn't negate my points. New people are new people, period. There's still a -getting to know you- period etc.
that's only avoided when people have chatted in other peoples' plurks and whatnot.
