i know! i totally wish i could friend some of the personal journals of the people on my flist, but i'm all insecure that they wouldn't want me to, and then it's like, woe. so i don't. on the other hand, that's because they're friends locked. since mine isn't, it's not so sekrit, really~:) like, -most- journals out there are "personal" and they get friended all the time, right? i have to remind myself of that. i used to follow personal and -only- personal journals. and now, in fandom, it's like heyo, we pretend we don't -have- thoughts Outside of the Fandom Box.
it's like that's -weird- or -embarrassing- or -really private-, as long as it's not about fanfic or the latest kerfuffle. i mean. yeah. it's not like it's a menstruation-cycle journal, y'know~:) eheheh.
i feel forward about friending people with it too, since like... then if they don't friend me back, i'm even more wibbly. like, several times i'd friended people with both that one and this one and they only friended back this one-- and that kind of seems funny to me because this one is sort of worthless except if you're like me and think about hp meta way too much. which most people don't, you know. i still have no clue how people bear reading this much of it, or why they friend me or any of that.
and i guess a part of me's like-- but okay, my -other- one -is- interesting 'cause at least it's -varied-, heheh. but there's this whole privacy thing which is okay except it's related to being non-fandom. like it's private -because- it's non-fandom. it all just seems sad, like... makes me wish fandom didn't mean "anti-real". but oh well -.-
