This has been a recurring issue in the past, ever since I started using Skype a lot: I often find myself doing very little because I am having so many conversations--frequently the same conversations, it would seem, or at least feel like--with a bunch of different people.
I love talking to people and making new fur friends and building relationships as I get to know people. I wish I could talk to everyone I know every single day and be really close to them all...but there just isn't enough time in the day, is there?
Here I want to stop and say that I am NOT writing this as a "Don't Bother Me" type of thing. I'm just remarking on where all my time seems to go a lot of the time. If you're my friend and feel that I don't talk to you often, the reason why is probably related to this.
I like to think I will always keep making new friends, and it's pretty impossible to lose me as a friend, but I do worry sometimes about the upkeep of each new friendship, and about ending up neglecting those who are my friends already. It's something that makes me pretty anxious in all honesty.
One part of me says that I should be more faithful and give more time to my older friends: They have earned it, right? They've been with me all this time!
Another part of me says that a lot of the most awesome and wonderful people I will meet in my life are people I still haven't had the pleasure of talking to yet... If I don't give everyone the same chances to get close to me, who's to say I'm not shutting out people who might potentially be the closest and best friends I will ever have?
In any case, yes I do spend a lot of time chatting idly on Skype, but it just might be worth every bit of the time it takes. :3 <3 I think so anyway.
