Paring down my Friends list

[spedbug]

Can I be honest? I have seventy-seven people on my friends list and it's partially due to this that I spend less time on LJ. I realize I'm under no obligation to post in everyone's journal yet I feel I should and will actually avoid reading journals if I feel I can't reply. This sucks. I worry that I already show partiality to certain people's journals while ignoring others and hate to think I'd inadvertanly hurt someone's feelings, in the end.

I went and looked at my Friends list, today, in hopes of finding a good ten people on there I could cut without hurting myself or them in the process and it was fruitless. Nearly every single person on my Friends list is someone I adore interacting with (even if it's only once in a while).

*sigh*

I love you guys and can't bear to part with any of you. :(

That is the cutest icon! So sweet!

I'm not culling anyone but I am going to give myself more slack for not reading/answering people's journals and I'm also going to slow down the rate at which I've been friending people.

Thanks for trusting me in your "inner circle". As for sounding wrong and elitist, I may have you beat! My super private list is labelled "Inner Sanctum". ;)
