yeah. also i get that people want to be friends with other people, and ideally they should be given a chance bc who knows maybe you'll really get a long!, but maybe the other person is really busy or who knows :/ this isn't directed at the twitter anon at all, just in general. it's rude if a bnf rejects you in a snooty way, but at the same time no one's obligated to take the time to make friends with everyone. ~it's a two-way street~
this is in general, too. i've just seen this raised a few times over the meme ("i want to be friends with Person A!" "you should just follow them on twitter!") and this is my personal reaction. i don't think it's really snooty, because it's not like they're actively bitching about it or anything, they're just choosing not to act.
yeah i don't think not responding is snooty unless you directly @'d them or something, i meant if they blatantly acted like ~too good for you. but i see anons saying stuff like "they're a bitch/you're 1000x better without them anyway" and i get that's to be comforting but also... the other person really isn't obligated to be your friend just because you want them to be!!!
yeah that's exactly how i feel. or if they said they welcomed all new friends and THEN rejected that person? half the time, i feel that anons don't know the person any way and are just saying things, plus they don't know the reason the original person chose not to accept the follow.
it's such a bullshit concept that just because someone wants to be friends that you have to be /annoyed
