She obviously uses her blog to portray an image that isn't wrapped in truth. <br /><br />You speak truth. You are genuine. :-)<br />Love to you ~~ MelodyeMelodyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03504448006781203492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046468726773783143.post-75717228271690320132011-03-01T18:33:11.080-05:002011-03-01T18:33:11.080-05:00Girlfriend!

I seriously imagine us listening to Dixie Chicks and laughing about farm stories together all the time.

You never know what kind of beautiful friendship could come out of your next time...now I feel like I'm talking to myself... I struggle with walking up to someone new and starting a convo with them too. I wish it came more naturally to me but it just doesn't. :)Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620159204052867069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046468726773783143.post-64480826379817823672011-03-01T15:57:26.714-05:002011-03-01T15:57:26.714-05:00Oh....My....Gosh......

I would be thrilled out of my wits to meet another local blogger...but then you never know, sometimes I get distracted....oh my goodness, if it was me, I am SO SORRY!!! I hope it wasn't. If it was, I totally didn't mean to blow you off. If I did, it was purely because I was off in a different world at the time...which can happen...<br /><br />Anyway, after talking to you in MOPS today I found your Etsy store and subsequently found your blog, and am inspired to "resurrect" mine. :) Great to meet you, and hopefully we can meet up again. :)<br />RachelRachelhttp://pleasedaspunch-rh.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046468726773783143.post-68690939656000546742011-03-01T14:55:28.398-05:002011-03-01T14:55:28.398-05:00p.s.

There was a snail mail project link on someone's page and it led me here, so I began looking around. You've got some pretty great posts and jewelry going on :) This story, however, made me cringe. Why do people have to act like this?! Whenever this type of crappy thing happens to me, I make a point to pray for that person and reassure myself of God's love for me. It's the only which has kept myself self-esteem afloat in my adult life.<br /><br />Cheers.Ms. Blaséhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11605491023736134114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046468726773783143.post-15891260135089000152011-02-28T23:25:18.704-05:002011-02-28T23:25:18.704-05:00you are a sweetheart, and that girl is obviously N...you are a sweetheart, and that girl is obviously NOT a sweet, kind person. but everyone i've ever met "in real life" from blogging, has been wonderful, and as amazing as they are in writing. some people aren't really what they present themselves to be on their blog; and that's crappy. but there are plenty of honest, sweet, lovely ladies out there...you need to meet them, my dear!bohomamasoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12957368916925315915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046468726773783143.post-12132092043565611172011-02-28T22:24:24.392-05:002011-02-28T22:24:24.392-05:00Making friends as adults is incredibly difficult. ...Making friends as adults is incredibly difficult. And the way that you approached her, was the exact way that I think *normal* people approach others. Or, in my head it is? If you would have approached me like that, I would have done an embarrassing happy dance after the in depth conversation that would have been to follow your introduction, ya know- the kind of happy dance that you'd then turn back around to catch me doing?<br /><br />I've approached many people like that. "So ummm... I really like the way that you're wearing your hair, and I can only assume that it must be because you're into swing music, and hopefully its real swing music and not the crappy second or third round of fake swing music, because if its the real kind, than maybe we can be friends?" ....totally not the right way to talk to somebody. But its how we think, right? And if you want to connect with someone... let them know who you are, right up front. <br /><br />Anyways. <br /><br />Amanda. <br /><br />That girl sucked. You rock.

I think some blogging hides the fact that in real life those same people suck :P I met up with someone who I met through Etsy and her blog and she was even more awesome in person (as were her kids) as she was in blog form. I feel bad for you because it discourages you from wanting to try again, but I promise you someday you'll make that real life connection.<br /><br />Makes me want to hop on a plane and come barge in and visit you. After about 5 minutes you'll wish I'd shut up and stop talking and you'll want to kick me out...hee hee.Alyssa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11674708702014878064noreply@blogger.com
