"So there must be lots of friends you neglect." Yes - or who neglect me - or who simply don't post alot. All three. Some post only rarely but I don't want to lose them, so I check them once in a great while. But that's their choice/style, not mine. My vision of what I want from LJ has changed since I began it - I now want a close group of friends who I really know or GET to know well, who I click with - and yes, commenting back and posting faithfully is a big part of that. I know the folks who really want to do this with me by now - and those are the journals I never neglect. Someday - I will cut off the journals that there is little or no interaction with, as you have. *nods*
"I'm willing to add you, but if i find out we don't match in our Lj-habbit, i'm afraid i will delete you again." That's more than fair and logical. You don't know me or anything about me, really. How can you possibly know if I will fit in with your journal life unless we get to know each other? I do not believe in drama or hurt feelings if someone deletes me. Either it works, or it doesn't. I had/have a feeling it could work with us - just an instinct. Feel free to add back if you wish - but understand that I know that if we do not blend well, you'll be deleting. And that's more than ok by me. :-)
