Exchange Links? Anyone?

This is just an observation for bloggers who want to exchange links, not about linking or pinging back some of their posts with their current post.
In my other blog, I had one commentor who wrote something like: “I have linked you with my other three blogs and I hope you do the same”. I repeat, this was what the “tone/message” that the blogger has written, though not exactly as I have written. Did I link the blogger? No, I didn’t ask this blogger to link me in the three blogs that s/he has, why would I link the blogs to mine, I don’t even visit the blogs mentioned.
At the beginning of my blogging “career”, I found it necessary to ask for other bloggers if they care to exchange links with them. What did I do? Most of them, I emailed, asking for this favor. I wanted to have virtual friends and I did. I was right in choosing these bloggers for until now, we still get in touch. Some of them became good, albeit, virtual friends who later on, became my buddies. Some blogs that I regularly visit, why, I haven’t asked them to exchange links with me, even if I have them in my links and even in my Google Reader.
Anyway, I digress, I am yapping too much here.
The gist of my topic is just this: I read in a friend’s blog, a comment like this:
i don’t see my name here. did we ever xlinks?
What the…?
What say you, huh?
