You know those people who go around asking artists if they can be friends? Has anybody ever seen them send any other messages? They send in the friend request, and you never hear from them again. It’s like they send the message, and then sit down and smile at their good fortune that they have a ‘friend.’ Even though they literally haven’t even talked to the person. The thought never crosses their mind to keep talking. Like 99% of friendships are forged because you keep communicating with said person for a period of time.
