I'm A Dysfunctional Socializer

   Posted by: jude   in Mature Not Senile Misc

I have no clue why I join programs to socialize and then never really socialize. I have decided not to join anything else because I have no clue how they work. Every once in awhile I go on Facebook to keep up with old friends and family because I hate talking on phones. I don’t play the games or really get involved, but sometimes I try to find people that I may have gone to school with.

The other night I apparently hit add friends or find friends and it sent invitations to everyone in my address book going back 8 years. I am such an idiot and don’t even remember half those people nor apparently do half of them  even remember where they know me from. I will have to be careful what I click from now on or just abstain from even bothering to log in. I can’t even remember half of the social sites I’ve joined over the years, however Twitter is one I never bothered with.

After 2 years of using the program Entrecard for finding new blogs and driving more traffic to this blog I have finally decided to terminate my association in 2 weeks time. I enjoyed using the program and found some great blogs which I will continue to visit. I really don’t have the desire or time even though I will continue to update here and visit the blogs I like.

It’s not like I’m imparting any great helpful news or wisdom and I’m not witty and funny. I started this as a personal website almost 8 years ago then switched it to a marketing website. Then 2 years ago I decided to try blogging and switched it again. I like blogging, but I really don’t have a burning desire to be a writer, I just like the idea of throwing words out there that mean nothing to anyone, but myself. I need to go for awhile so take care everyone.

You may think you’re a dysfunctional socializer but you have friends here! I’ll be around anyway. I think there is going to be a real echo starting around the entrecard world!

Well Entrecard or not if you post, I’ll be here. I’ve enjoyed reading the words you throw out. I’m the same with those sites. I have facebook, myspace and twitter. I mainly just hang out on the blogs though and can’t get into the other sites.

Oh, Jude….I hear you loud-and-clear!! I hadn’t used Entrecard in months. It really takes a lot of time, ya know? Facebook…I joined cause my kids said I should!! I don’t have time for that either!!

I always enjoy your posts…and I’ll be popping in on you to see what you’re up to. You are one of the bonuses from Entrecard for me!!

I’m pretty much like you; I am in a few social networking sites but I don’t really use them as much. I am using more of Facebook to keep in touch with some people who I have no other ways to keep in touch at the moment. Your words are not meaningless to us, your words serve to link us all together to know how you are doing there and the things happening around you.

Hi Jude,
We are your friends and I enjoy your blog too. I quit Entrecard, just not happy with the traffic. I will admit that I do have a business blog, I am a stay at home mom. But, there are a lot of blogs out there trying to make some extra money. Nothing wrong with that.

You are a great socializer and I will still visit your blog and check up on you. Take good care! :-)

I’m so sorry to hear you’re leaving EC. I just added my 2 other blogs today to EC, and have been really happy with the traffic Traveling Suitcase has gotten.

I do hope you’ll still visit often, and blog often. I love it.

I just recently joined FB, don’t intend to play any games there, but was hoping to spread the word a bit about the charity blog. So far, that hasn’t panned out; but I did connect with some friends from Find A Grave I hadn’t chatted with in a long while so that’s been nice.

Hope to see and hear from you soon.
Sandy
