That might be fine for you, but I don't even have any friends that are girls...
Dot,
I have to call you out on this, ok?
A long time ago when you sent me a friends request, I sent you a private message back asking about you, your hobbies and interests, etc. to get to know you... in other words, I was trying to be friends. And, last time I knew, I just so happen to be a girl. But you never replied or even acknowledged my message.
There have also been times I've tried to say hi to you in the chatrooms and so forth, but you never even respond.
I've read most of your posts and threads about being single and how much you say you want to work on your social issues and have friends who are girls... that's why I tried contacting you--I thought we could be friends.
I figured maybe you just didn't answer because of the age difference--I get messages regularly from guys in their late 50's telling me they're looking for a wife--but I tried my best not to sound like someone looking for a spouse! I just thought maybe we could start a friendship and maybe I could encourage you a bit.
However, I've read a post from at least one other person on the threads who said he too wrote you some suggestions via private mail... so I'm wondering... if you don't answer the people on a chat line who want to help and be your friends...
How do you expect to change in real life? Sorry, I've tried to be as considerate and polite as I could be in my other replies to you, but I just had to throw this out.
I'm not sure what kind of feedback you really want when you don't even answer people who take the time and make the effort to contact you personally. How do you expect to make friends in real life if you're apparently not even interested in making them here?
Maybe what you should start with are some questions about how to make and form friendships, even on a chat line... and we can take it from there. (Tip number one: when people try to talk to you, it's a good idea to respond or they'll probably assume you're not interested in being friends.)
Just something to think about, ok?
Kim
