I have been thinking about this since April but I wasn't sure. My friends list is far from "being big", but I am really busy. Honestly, I don't want to do this, it makes me feel really bad, but I have already made up my mind. If you have been cut, it is likely because:
1. You don't update anymore or rarely update that we didn't get to know each other at all. You don't need to update every day, or even every week. But updating at least once in 2 or 3 weeks is good. If you don't update anymore or rarely update, it is hard to get to know you better.
2. You never comment or rarely comment on my journal. I like reading your entries and commenting, because I want to to know my friends more. I am not forcing you to comment on all of my entries but I'd love to recieve comments from you at least once in a while. It shows that you are still interested in my life and stuff. But if you friend me or I friend you but we never talk, I can't get to know you more. I feel guilty because I have cut some new friends too but if you never comment, we can't get to know each other.
3. I find it is hard to comment on your journal. I feel guilty again... I do read friends' entries and comment, but I admit that I can hardly find something to comment on few of yours. Some of you were ones of my first friends and we had known each other for a long time, plus some of you sometimes comment on my LJ too, but due to schooling, I have to do this. I am really sorry.
Those are my reasons. I apologize again for doing friends cut. Feel free remove me if you have been removed. But if you wish to talk to me about my friends cut or feel this is unfair, you can leave a comment here and we can talk about this. I would like this to be hard feelings free. Comments are screened and no all kinds of bad comments, please.
