Note.

A friend is a valuable word.

I don’t use the word friend loosely.

It requires connection, rapport, trust, safety, shared experiences, actions that align with words,

etc.

It takes a lot of time to use that word.

People in my close circle are in my close circle for a reason.

Just because someone is a creepy fan and desperate to be my friend.

I cannot comply.

Half the population are jokers in a white cardigan.

Some people have extreme cases of para social relationships with me.

I’m not fucking interested.

I don’t trust people easily.

Who I want to be friends with is my choice and my choice only.

Based on my personal first hand experience with them.

Because this is my life.

So it’s my decision alone.

I’m a friend to my community only on my public platforms.

On a personal front, I’m not a friend.

I’m a public figure.

I have been extremely clear about my boundaries and I have repeated it multiple times for it to sink in.

I have my problems and limitations.

Hence my boundaries are non-negotiable.

If my community really considers me as a friend.

They will respect my personal space and boundaries.

If anyone encroaches on my boundaries.

That makes them a creepy fan.

If they do it in the name of love I have to get a restraining order.
