It's not just you, I said "people like you." Of course I don't expect that kind of commitment; you don't see me rushing off to FB to display it myself, do you?

The point is that part of what encouraged me to give my emotional commitment to LJ was that a critical mass of my own friends were joining. I thought they were here because they liked it; I didn't realize many of them were just marking time until they could jump ship to something else. In that regard the "rebound relationship" is an exact parallel.
