Dear Former LJ Friend…

…LJ sent me a notification that you had de- (or is it “un”) friended me. I am sorry that you did that, but I understand. After all it is your journal and you should always control who you share your life with.

My friending policy, I thought, was pretty clear, but maybe I do need to clarify it. It may seem to you that I am being “stuck up”, but I don’t automatically friend back especially if the friending journal is:

– owned by someone under 18 (that is for their protection as well as mine);

– or the owner has another journal that I have already friended or; (and this one applies to you)

– it is written in a language I don’t speak, understand or read. At this moment, I am only fluent (depending on who you talk to) in English, but a miracle may occur and I might become more knowledgeable in your language in the morning (It would take a miracle, but nevertheless it might occur).

That said, I hope you will continue to read my journal and that something I write will strike you as being “spot on” or funny. Sadly, I will not be able to say that about yours because…you know…I can’t read it.
