Giving importance to your friend...

I was too happy being a part of this site as I was able to made a lot of friends. Though I have just met them virtually but I do appreciate every effort they have done for inviting me to be his/her friend. However, I was just thinking, how they are doing now, since I haven't exchange words with them neither an exchange emails. Although there are times I am trying to drop an email or private message to them just to say hi & hello but still I received no response. As I really don't know if that is only a sort of a no reaction thing or perhaps, they are too busy doing other errands. Thus, I am also wondering if they still remember me. Well, I guess, I am just a nobody since I was just a part of the virtual world being their virtual friend.

Hi airasheila,
Actually, I really remember you. You just gave a comment to one of my discussions and I think you really are being for real. What I mean is that there are many persons out there that are not for real. I think you are a nice person too. Hoping we can be truly friends here at mylot.
Have a nice day!

We will never really know for sure unless they tell what's going on with them that they can't go online to send or reply to emails or messages. It's also possible that they simply ignore the messages, or the message got lost in the wrong folder, like spam or something. It has also happened to me and I do admit it can be a bit uncomfortable. But then, all we can do is be supportive and just hang on. If they get in touch once more, great. If not, well at least we were given an opportunity to meet them.

hi airshelia to me my mylot frends are precious s to me and if I get a private message I do my best to always respond back to them as I appreciate my friends here. They have accepted me even though i am much older than most and I have made a lot of friends here.
I found mylot just after I was forced to retire and have fallen in love with the site. It filled up all my needs and even earn a little money too.

Don't be sad. Some people would like to have a silence and just everything to themselves and not bother other people but once you have started a frienship with good foundation. It will last forever and you don't even expect it.

hi there,
that is the word - silence. i guess, i should just keep silent and just keep on working in order that my earning goes high.

You can private message me and I will reply. Perhaps because we don't know each other, people don't quite know what to say. But I do appreciate this community here. And that we can make money by communicating with each other.
Don't ever consider yourself a nobody - everyone is special and that includes you.

Good day ZoeJoy,
I want to express my sincere thanks for including me as one of the special people. Though we just met here online. Thanks for the company being given.

As far as I know I never ignore any message/s that I received.
I always give time to respond to messages sent by friends here.
I met few mylotters in person already and made a closer relationship with them.
Same thing with those who I haven't meet in person- I give them importance like the way they treat me.

Sorry to hear that, that happened to me too. I guess there are those who are here for the money but not really into making friends. I think we could put the two things together but I end up giving up a little after seeing that here. There are those also who seems more interested in real time discussions, for it's practical, I don't know

Ah, being too busy should never be a reason, I believe. Also, I do believe virtual world stops being so virtual the moment we become friends with someone, I mean even online friendship counts for something more that just a list of names added to our friends' list. You don't have to have seen someone's face to call them "a friend", and therefore, at least respond to someone's "hi". I must admit that the same things happened to me and the feeling isn't good, frustration and disappointment prevail. I wish your friends come to senses and don't forget that you should never call yourself "nobody".

Hi
yes people only interact on discussions and many may don't like to get pm . But everyone has their point of view and we should respect that. we may think that as we are interacting in the discussions they may be interested in getting messages but i really don't think all have the same idea. So dont think about that, just enjoy your time while discussing. This is a virtual world .

Well, maybe they are just busy with their businesses but one thing is for sure , they appreciate what you are doing . I think you are a lovable friend and you really are attached with your friends. Do not feel bad about having no response from them. I think they are thinking for you too.

I guess that's the problem of being in the web community. Often times we get to join a lot of forums that we lose track of the others and when we do, we find ourselves lost in the amount of discussions we need to respond to. If it does you any good, I'll respond to your personal message if you send me one. Regards.
