My Mylot friends have deserted me

I wonder why they have not responded to my homeless shelter post.
Only one person replied and they are not even on my friends list.
I needed some support, a hug, a bible verse, a special quote, something to lift me out of my funk.
I am shocked and hurt. They could have at least sent me a message in private.
It surprises me that people will respond to the silly posts but when someone is crying out for advice and support, everyone disappears.
Do any other members feel this way? Has this happened to you?
What shocks me the most is that most of the members on my friends list requested to be my friend. I rarely make requests.
What is the point in asking to be my friend if you are not going to respond to my threads?
I need a little love.

sorry to hear that. i was not able to log in at mylot for i am busy with my nephew. i can log on today for there are no classes... its a monday and there is no classes so i can find time to respond and open my mail to look at notification. so far i was lifted up with a lot of mylot members during the time when i lost my aunt last month. i am soory to hear that you need a hug and nobody was there to give you one. i wish you feel much better now.

I'm sorry. I didn't see the thread. I try to post on the serious topics, but I haven't been that active over the last few days. I'm so sorry you didn't get a decent response. Perhaps you can make a new thread?

Thats ok. I did get three replies on that thread now. I was just venting. Thanks for replying :).

'Friend' is a big word. Having a list of so-called 'friends' here is sometimes much different from how one would expect it to be. I think that it would be much more appropriate to call it a list of 'buddies'. When something happens and no-one is around then it just adds to the burden one already has.
Whatever is your plight at this present time I hope it will pass and you will soon be feeling and seeing better days.
The only quote I can offer is one I always have in mind and I find it helps often:
'It never gets darker than midnight'.
Good luck!

Other then busy lives and distracting obligations, the only thing I can offer is some people can be so cruel. I know I used to be mean, but well that's a different story. I hope that you have gotten through whatever it was or gotten help. I'll see if I can find the discussion and respond, I'm not sure if I can add anything but I hope that this response has helped.
