Before I write anything, I just want to apologize if whatever I type comes of as rude or selfish, I really don’t intend it to but it’s hard to get what you’re trying to say over the Internet across without sounding like a complete asshole sometimes, haha.
I mean this in the most sincere, un-hostile way possible! xD

Okay! Here goes…

I understand what you’re suggesting, I often tell myself that I should update this blog more, and ask any of my friends, they’ll tell you how bad I feel sometimes for not posting you guy’s confessions up straight away. But it’s not the amount of confessions that stops me from updating much. Let me just make sure I get that across.
This blog has a perfectly nice queue of confessions in the ask box at the moment, and it’s been a nice stable flow for me for a while now. I can handle them fine on my own, it’s a good number for one person to handle by themselves. Apart from the occasional anon who likes to spam confessions, the queue is actually quite short compared to other confessions blogs that have over 200+ in their queues. I currently have 40, and I like to think I do a good job of keeping it around and below that number. :)

Now then, down to me not updating much. I’ve always seen this blog as a hobby. It’s not my main Tumblr, and I love updating for you guys. But it’s still not at the top of my priority list in life.
So if that means sometimes (and I do try to do this as little as possible) that I miss updating the blog for a week or a couple of nights, then I’m quite content with doing that.

I know people love this blog, I love it to pieces myself, but I’m choosing not to update it. I am choosing not to.
I do have a social life and other interests, I do have emotional and sometimes physical things like getting ill that stop me from wanting to update, and so I don’t.

This blog has always been something to do in my free time, and it always will be that. I’m not going to sacrifice certain important people/things in my life so I can update more, as much as I’d love to update more.
People do have to wait a little while for their confessions sometimes, and I apologize for that, but I can handle the number fine by myself for now. :) Believe me, if I needed help I would ask for it, I’m not the type to keep quiet haha. Or I’d even do as some other confession blogs do and only open the ask box on Sundays. But I don’t, because I know I can handle it.
If this sounds selfish or as if I’m blowing my own trumpet, I don’t mean it to. But that’s the honest truth. :’)

So thank you for the suggestion, I do take what everyone says into consideration, and I know you don’t mean it in a rude way. Just as I don’t in anything I wrote above!
I just hope people understand from my viewpoint. :’)
