I do read you as often as I can, Chani, because you always have interesting things to say about music, movies, politics, etc. I have been lousy about commenting, and I do apologize. I will confess to feeling shy sometimes and worrying that I won't fit in, and often I am self-conscious about voicing my opinions about politics and relationships and fandom things. But it doesn't mean I'm not reading, or that I don't like to hear what you say. I just... I... I guess I'm a bit of a wallflower until I get to know someone REALLY well.

I also often miss posts as my flist is really big. That's no excuse though and again, I apologize.

I do agree with you- I find that I am retreating more and more to IM and email, as it is becoming harder and harder to keep up with my flist with hectic RL schedules. Which is sad, as LJ had previously been a good way to connect with new friends.

I hope you will keep me, Chani. But if you defriend me because I haven't commented enough, I understand. It's your LJ and you should make it comfortable for you. Which I guess goes back to your original discussion...
