Hello Interwebs!
Welcome to my blog! I have been meaning to make a blog for sometime now but just haven't. I've wanted a place to share my experiences, creations, and a place to vent when I just have no where else to. Sound like a plan? Good. Then why not start this off with something that has been bothering me for sometime now.
Facebook. I hated it at first and refused to get one until the middle of my freshmen year in college. Peer pressure set in and I caved. Then once I got an Iphone it was all over. Facebook at my finger tips 24-7. But the problem lies here. It started giving me a false sense of friendships. And before I realized it people who I thought would never leave me behind had already forgotten about me. I had a friend lets call them X, who I thought was a person who I could always rely on. WE used to be BEST FRIENDS. I loved X like a sister. But then NOTHING. Literally nothing. X now basically doesn't want anything to do with me except be my "friend" on Facebook. X was invited to my wedding last July and didn't even reply much less come. You must be thinking "Well what did you do to piss X off?. Well that's the thing I didn't do anything at all. When I asked what was up I didn't really get any answers. I guess I should go ahead and mourn the loss of this friendship but it seems I have done a lot of that in the past 6 months. I really do miss X but they have apparently already moved on(according to Facebook). I just love and trust people too much and get burned too often. I have a terrible problem choosing friends. It seems rare to find people who actually care about being a good friend, not jump to conclusions, and actually care about the other person.
I look at my Facebook and it tells me that I have 345 friends.Well Facebook I sure don't feel that way. I can think of maybe 6 of that 345 that are actually my friend. So what do I do now? If I were to delete everyone who doesn't talk to me then what would be the point of having a Facebook? I just want to have friends again. I remember when I had 2 girl friends. We would go out to lunch or for a walk and just talk about everything. I miss that. (I know, I know I have a husband who I share everything with but sometimes its nice to have friends to talk things out with.) I miss being able to call Amber up and just talk. Not like she answered much but when she did it was nice. (oh yeah the Amber story. It's long so Ill save that for a later time)
Writing this I just realized what my new years resolution is. I want to find new people or really get to know some of the people I already know. SO NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR NEW FRIENDS. YOU MUST CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE, be HONEST, be LOYAL, and LIKE/PUT UP WITH MY WEIRDNESS.lol no but seriously I am..lol
P.S.
For my 6 friends on Facebook-
Its not that you guys arent enough but I dont even get to see/ hang out with you guys that often. So lets fix that!!!!
Thank you for reading my rambling thoughts. You really dont know how much it means to me. I hope this is the beginning of something Great.
