Friends Only

[minxybaby]

This is not just a blog to me. My friends list, is just that: my friends list. If you like my recipes, but don't care about the person behind them, you can bookmark my recipe post and skip the whole adding thing. It is updated as I post new recipes, so you will not miss anything new.

If you're going to add me and then drop me the next day because OMG I didn't comment to your first post that shows up on my friends page, then please don't waste my time. I don't comment on every post, and I don't expect you to comment on every post of mine.

On that same note, if you can make up your mind that you just don't like me after 1 or 2 days, I'd rather you don't add me. Take the time to go through my user info to get a feel for who I am and what I'm about now, before you add.

The majority of people added to my list, stay on my list. Most of my lj friends have been around since I created this journal. I don't do friends cuts or make people jump through hoops to stay on my list ("Comment if you want to stay!"), but I do eventually cut people who haven't updated in several months.

If you've given me some time and we just don't click, fair enough! You can remove me as easily as you added me. I'd prefer you comment to let me know that you've removed me, just as a courtesy, but of course you don't have to.

I post a LOT of pictures (sometimes videos) of our daughters. I always use the lj-cut, but if this bothers you, then again, please don't add me.

If you read all that and still want to add me, please comment! I am currently happy with the number of friends I've made here, but I always add new people who seem awesome. I will not add random adders - By that I mean, if you add me, please tell me! If I have no clue who you are and you've never commented to me, I will not add you back.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post, and I look forward to getting to know you!

I was thinking about making my journal friends only... but then wondered what the advantages/disadvantages of that would be... Any thoughts?

You seem to be very intresting. =)
Friends?

Hi there. Seems we not only have communities in common, but interests and a friend or two as well. I'd love to add you if that's ok.

I would really like to add you, and I just have to say that your little baby is gorgeous! welcome to the world of mummyness

[mrbluerasp.livejournal.com]

Hello, You replied to my post in Married Add me and I am just writing back to say I would happily add you as a friend. Looking forward to reading your journal. PS- You must be real talented to be able to post so far in the future (2036) Ha Ha.

[cheerleader77.livejournal.com]

I think we have a lot in common. I would like to be your friend. (I saw your comment on meet other moms)

[teapostal.livejournal.com]

I popped in here from an Ottawa community and was looking around, and I'd like to add you - I think we have a lot of similar interests.

The recipes are what hooked me, but I'm also in Ottawa, a mother, and see we have a few things in common in our interests!

Ange.

Howdy! I just joined your snapshot_hunter comm! It looks like fun! Thanks for setting that up!!! I can't wait to play.

[oceanstorme.livejournal.com]

*waves* I'm in your Snapshot_Hunter community, and saw it featured on the front page of LJ. Just wanted to say congrats on the feature! :) I need to get my butt in gear and get back to posting snapshots!

hi robin,
i used to be cocomilklover. i am going to e mail you, i hope you read it. :) celeste

[suspiria.livejournal.com]

food, pets & baby girls sound like lovely conversation topics! =)

[cindy-reddeer.livejournal.com]

LJ sends notices when someone adds you? I've never gotten one of those...are you special or something? ;-)

*raises right hand* I swear I will not be un-adding you anytime in the near future.

[aquariusbelle.livejournal.com]

Alrightie, well, here's the truth. I read your user info and all your public entries. I'm not a stalker, but I agree with what you said about lj friends being real friends and if I was going to add you, to add you with that amount of dignity and respect.

Anyway, wow this sounds weird, and I hope that is ok... I think we have a bit in common, and I would love to hear how your world is. I have never been to Canada but you interest me.

Can we be friends?

Hi, saw you reply to someone else's post the 25 and up adding community. I'm always glad to have a fellow mommy on my friends list.

[alienstranger.livejournal.com]

Hi, Came across your LJ today because you're in a graphics comm I'm in and I liked the icon you posted with there. It was a rainy autumn one, so I came to check out your userpics to see where it was from. Thanks!

I have a question for you: On your userinfo page you have a beautiful header with butterflies on it and of course your username. May I ask did you make it? If not you then may I ask who made it and in what comm?

Thanks much in advance! =)

Hi there! You were recommended to me by canadiandreamr. I'm looking for more mommy friends. I find that a lot of people on my list now are more intersted in fandom than in my real life. The reality of it is that my kids ARE my life. As stressful as being a mommy can be, I wouldn't change it for the world! Anyhow, I hope you'll add me back and we can get to know each other!
