Oh, yes.

Since the people I wish I didn't/couldn't read my journal were here first, I can't say as I have anyone in that category.

well, i didn't introduce them. but yes.

that's what biting passive off-hand comments in unprotected entries are for.

Most of the people I introduced have stopped using LJ. It's some of the people I've "met" since I've been here that I wish I could un-meet.

Hmm . . . I've introduced a ton of people to LJ, and there are definitely some of them I'm not friends with anymore. That said, the only one I can think of who I introduced to LJ and who parted ways with me in a particularly unpleasant manner and whom I never made up with to any degree later is roguebear, who last updated his journal 188 weeks ago, so, uh, I think he's been un-introduced to LJ now.

There are definitely people I've wished far more recently and far more strongly than him that I could remove from LJ, but most of them are people I didn't introduce to LJ in the first place. I did introduce spiritofnow to LiveJournal, though, and I spent about a year wishing, well, maybe not exactly that I hadn't introduced her to LJ at all, but at least that I hadn't encouraged half my friends list to add her to their journals, and/or that she would at least stop writing such incessant and public journal entries about me. (She told me she'd stop writing them if I asked her to, but I didn't feel like I should control what she wanted to write in her journal, as long as she only wrote the truth, which she did. But that didn't mean I was happy about having the truth constantly complained about in public, either.) However, she's finally stopped writing them now (thank all the nonexistent goddesses that she finally found a girlfriend who stopped her from the endless broken-heartedness over me), and we're LJ friends again, so I think the bitterness is pretty much over now.

That's why I've not introduced anyone. I have one "friend"(?) who knows that I have some kind of blog, and she's asked me for the address several times, but I keep "forgetting" to give it to her. Instead of having a real backbone and saying, "I just don't want you in that part of my life."

Of course I usually post "friends only" anyway.
