Bloggy Question 36: When She Started Serenading

February 11, 2007 by Liz

Bloggy Buddy Forever

For those who come looking for a short, thoughtful read, a blogging life discussion, or a way to gradually ease back into the week. I offer this bloggy life hypothetical question. . . .


At a tech social two months ago, you talked to a woman, an independent contractor like yourself. She’s a person who you keep meeting at such events. You hadn’t spent much time with her, but this time you got to know her, what she does, and her business views.

She told you that she has clients in many cities, that she travels 6-12 days a month. You discussed how you both dislike hotel rooms, how isolating they are. She seemed vibrant, intelligent, and curious. You left the tech social thinking of her as extra help for your business when you need it.

She sent you a CD you had talked about as a thank you for the tech social conversation!

One month ago, you met her at Panera and spent a work session together. As a friend, you introduced her to blogging. You thought that blogging might help her business and give her something to do when she’s on the road.

Every day since, she has linked to every post you put up. People are talking about your new blogging buddy — especially after someone mentioned the roses your new friend sent you to thank you for teaching her blogging.

You seem to have. . . um . . . a ”needy” blogging buddy forever.

How do you respond?
