Why is it when you follow a fellow blogger's blog they don't follow you back? I am sure that this is something that we have all experienced at least once or in my case.....more times than I would like to admit. I have pondered several reasons. 1. Maybe my blog is not your cup of tea. 2. Maybe you follow me anonymously because you don't want other bloggers to know you are following me{ I doubt this in my case but I have looked at some blogs that I would love to keep secret} 3. I don't have enough followers for you or you have waaay more than me so you can't follow me . 4. I am a thrifting/fashion blog and you are a food/photography blog therefore you are not interested. 5. I am too old, ugly or fat for you to follow. 6. I am too serious. 7. You don't like the color pink? { although your blog is pink} lol!! 8. You are threatened by my Victoria's Secret model body, perfectly symmetrical face and to die for lavish home? (that was meant to be funny people). 9. Your fingers are broken. 10. You are afraid I won't follow back. Remember my friends...these are the reasons that I have pondered. I can't tell you how grateful I am to a few sweet, courageous bloggers out there who took a chance and went ahead and followed me without my asking, hinting, begging, or prompting. I think that they deserve a mention....Mrs. Grinder, Statements in Fashion, Old Lady Chic, Little Blue Deer, The Alternative Wife, Tricia's Take, Love Simone, Rants on the Run, Mod Vintage Life, Everyone Loves Lipstick, Design Blooms

Blog like no one is following and don't ever forget, you are Fabulous - even if no one is watching!!!!!
I think the same things sometimes! But there are some bloggers that follow me and we just don't have anything in common, so I don't folllow them back. Follow me if you like what I'm doing, oh well if you don't right? But I like what you're doing!!! :)
I don't have a blog but, I follow you because you are my inspiration, mentor, and most of all my FRIEND/SISTER!!! I love you and all the hard work you put into making this blog put a smile in my heart!!!!
Keep writing about what you love and what you care about and your readers will find you. Blogging isn't about the numbers, even though sometimes it may seem like it is, when you boil it down it's about having a platform to share what is important to you and being involved in a community.
I TOTALLY get what you're saying about people leaving comments saying "feel free to follow me", it's one of my pet peeves
Remember.....If you build it, they will come.
Hi !
Love your Blog. I'm a "follower" because I want to start a [fashion for 40/50 something-] blog in the future, and don't know how to start. Reading a lot of blogs just to get some idea's. Hope you don't mind !
Love from Holland.
