Private messages and time
As much as I would like to answer every private message I get here, I cannot.
Please do not take offense.
I cannot reply to every message I receive. I do read every one of them. And there are many I'd like to respond to but just don't have the time.
(In the 90 seconds since I started this blog post, I have received 5 messages.)
I am a fairly speedy reader. I'm a decent typist. I do like to take a minute to compose my thoughts before typing them and I like to make sure I have something worthwhile to say before I spend time on it. Time is one the resources in life you cannot replenish when it is lost.
I've had a few people send me angry notes when I don't respond. That's a surefire way to get unfriended and (potentially) blocked. Seriously bad social graces there, guys.
I'm very up-front about what I want and what I expect.
For those who asked "what can I write to make you reply to me", here's a little tip sheet about things to avoid. (These are "GUIDELINES"... not hard and fast rules.)
:
- ask questions about how I'm doing or feeling. If I'm good, then I'm good. If I'm not well, you really don't want to hear about it.
- say things where my response will be a simple "thank you" or "me too". I don't bother with such trivialities.
- ask me to cam, call, Skype, text, or anything of the sort. I have special people in my life who might get jealous.
- send abbreviated links! If I can't see where a link will take me, I won't click it. Sorry. Internet Safety Rule #4, I think.
- ask what kind of porn I like. I'm a deviant. The kind of porn I like varies from day-to-day. Something which disgusts me one day might appeal to me after a while.
- ask me about my fantasies. This falls under the "don't ask about what kind of porn I like" section. It changes and varies. My most deeply held fantasies are not the kind of thing I want to share online.
- ask me to have sex with you, hook up, go for drinks, etc. Really. Seriously. I have people in my life. I engage in porn usage to get myself "warmed up" when I want to feel sexual but it just isn't happening. Sometimes, I just use it for quick relief, too. Scheduling conflicts, guests, work, and so many other things can interfere with getting that stress-relief we all need sometimes.
- send notes sharing your fantasies.
- share kinks and fetishes.
- share sites and video links, etc. (No abbreviated links! See above section.)
- send praise and adoration of my wit and manner. (This is sarcasm, mostly.)
- be respectful toward me and those who leave notes on my pages.
I'm not a total bitch, really... though this blog post might make me sound like a demanding, selfish, high-maintenance, asshole. I could never be a famous celebrity. I value my privacy. I value my time. I value ME.
I love people. Spending time getting to know someone is one of my favorite things. I just don't have the time to be fair to myself and my loved ones, while studying and working full-time, too.
If being an internet personality was my full-time job, then I might be more inclined to relax... but as I said, I couldn't handle being a celebrity.
Thanks for reading.
