I'm a bit sad...

[silversolitaire]

Thinking about how many things have changed in the LJ community right now. I can't exactly place my finger on it, but somehow I get the impression that it's changed... I am just as guilty as everyone else... Somehow I don't bother to answer to friend's comments as much anymore and the same happens to me. There used to be a time when I had tons of comments in my inbox when I logged on in the morning. And now? Hardly ever anything... Or am I just posting boring stuff lately? I really wonder...

Funny, since this is a journal and I keep it for myself and all and still I notice such things. It's just too weird.

Comments

I noticed the same thing recently. At first I was hurt because I thought it meant that my friends had stopped caring about what I had to say. Then I realized that I was being as lax about commenting as they were... I just became lazy and didn't see the point in my "Yeah, that's true" comments. I think the excitement of LJs has waned for many of us.

I guess that's true... and it's just so sad... I guess it's the same with answering to comments, no? *sad look*

Hmm. What shall I say? I try to always give comments, when I have to say something about the current theme, or when I have the feeling that comments are needed and/or appreciated. But sometimes I have the feeling, my comments aren't appreciated. (just ignore me right now. It's only a attack of low self esteem.)

Oh hon!

Your comments are appreciated! Very much! *hugs* Please don't feel bad and forgive me for not letting you know how much I like talking to you and knowing how much you care, okay? I'm an idiot for still not mailing back, but I'm always so tired when I come home from work. Tomorrow, I promise, okay? *hugs*

Chin up!

*hugs back and feels much better now*
I'm looking forward to tomorrow then! ^_~ But if you are too tired - no pressure.

I think it's mainly because of the LJ slowdown/breakdown... it's so hard to get into your friends page, nevermind a comments page. I don't think a lot of people have paid accounts, but even I find it difficult to get to comments pages sometimes.

*hugs* Don't think you're boring. With more personal posts I don't feel like I know you well enough to have that authority to give you sound advice.
