Can I Ask You Something?

How many of you honestly and really come back and read my responses to comments?

I am just so very curious.

38 comments:

  1. i try to subscribe to post comments. if the blog doesn't have them I do come back if I remember later. I do check your's if I have commented. do you?

  2. I try to read your comments even if I don't comment, because they are like continuations of the conversation - very rare in bloggyland. But it must be a bit of work for you, yes?

  3. I go back and read the blogs I post on after I leave a comment just to see if a response was given all the time myself.

  4. Kristin- I do go back if I am aware that the blog-author responds to comments. Actually, I love that. But I realize that not everyone does respond to comments.

    To the rest of you: Noted. Thank-you. I mean it.

  5. Me!! :) I love reading your comment threads. You have the sweetest, most intelligent readers ever. Love this community.

    I love that you have a dialog with your readers. There are so many folks with sites such as this who don't. It makes me happy!

  6. I do more than half the time, but not always. This is due to having two little ones and not enough time.

  7. I always check back to see what you had to say if I have commented. Your comments make me feel loved. :-)

  8. I do, but sometimes I am soooo late getting caught up on your blog that I see you already have a bajillion comments and you have already commented back so I don't comment.

    But I drink in every word.

  9. It depends. Usually, I subscribe via email to the comments if the topic is "hot".

  10. I do. Because it's all about me. :)

  11. I always read the comments, even if I'm not commenting because the people who comment on your blog always leave funny, interesting and smart comments. And reading them makes me feel that I know them a little too.

    But the best part is getting something back from you when I comment....that makes my day....because it's all about me too! :) and you :) and them :) and then some more of me! Love you!

  12. I DO! And, like Mel and Liv, I read the comments even when I don't comment. I love this community you have created and nurtured and sustained.

  14. I frequently do....feeling guilty all the while since I don't answer comments on my blog!

  15. Well, every day, I look up your blog and read all the comments, sometimes I leave a remark, sometimes not, but your blog gets read by me every day... thank you for sharing, and I hope that you are pleased with everyone's response... you are worth it!!

  16. I love reading everyone's comments and then your response.. It feels like a proper conversation!! Unfortunately I'm normally a day behind.. Stupid other side of the world... So I mostly don't comment, as it's all happened and moved on before I get here... But I am here and I love it.. J

  17. Hell yeah! It's easier though if we can chip on the email me the comments... I do have a blog myself and I know how much it means to me to get comments. I try to answer comments as much as possible too because I know people took the time to write them. I agree with a couple of posters that it is nice to be acknowledged, it feels like I "belong". And I very much appreciate you taking the time to answer if you have time and energy.
    It is extremely time consuming but it gives us commenters such a nice feeling... So thank you for putting all that work into our comments. And in writing your blog!

  18. I love reading the comments of this little community and I do come back to see what you have to say. Your kindness to your readers is what made me a devoted reader, that and the way you tell us about your dear family and life, of course. x0 N2

  20. I try my very best. I will admit that the more popular a blog is, the harder it is to scroll through and find the posts and then the actual comments pertinent to meD A lot of times I read all of it. depends on time. Although I'm busier than ever, I've followed the Moons for three years now. No need to stop now!

  21. Most of the time. Remember, though, that if you are too busy in your real life, others will understand.

    The blog is for you, to do with as you need to. That means reply if you want, and don't on days it gets to be too much. Your choice.

  22. Don't be cranky, of COURSE I read all the comments and your responses to them!!! Pffft!!!

    hahahahhaaa

  23. I always come back to see what you say. I love your replies. They always make me feel special.

  24. It's the only reason I comment.

  25. I know you DO write responses so I try to come back and see what you've said...but to be honest, I usually forget...usually because my reading list has moved on by the time you would have responded and I just don't think to scroll back over places I've been. I will remember if I think I've said something that was worthy of a comment from you.
    I think it's great that some people reply to comments - I don't know how they think of an adequate response to most comments...because of that I don't - I wouldn't sound sincere - also, if most people are like me, they forget to look back so if I need to say something, I will hit reply hoping the commenter allows this or I'll respond in another post so I can't be reasonably assured that they'll see it.

  26. More All- Aw Jeez. Thank you. Magnum, stop making me laugh. And Deb- QUIT WITH THE DAMN GUILT! I mean it. And I will too.

  27. I do try...but lately...well lately I'm just strapped in tight for the ride and am grateful for just getting to read the posts!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I do. Another reason I love your blog.

  29. I do try to go back and reread your blog post if I have written to see if you do make a comment. On my blogs I ended up having the comments that are made are notified via email to me then I write back via email. With four blogs it was hard to keep going back to each post I make and make a comment that way.

  30. I do, but sometimes as the semester draws to a close it takes me a few days.
