So tell me if any of you have experienced anything like this:

There are people on here that I've spent months even years that I've talked to that I felt comfortable with. We may not have had a relationship per se. But we had a mutual something or other. And then those people just drop out disappear And then return after months or years and act like they don't know you at all. What is wrong with people?

Yes, more than once. I think online relationships can stall out and people that have the same problem ending relationships in RL just resort to ghosting others online...

@fun4us2b I think you're absolutely right. I Think here it's a little easier because of the anonymity. I've had some great relationships here great friendships that I've had for over 10 years between EP and here. Unfortunately I have had to deal with some bad apples. And some people who have other relationships and respectfully didn't make me aware or the other person somehow found out about the app And have had to deal with a lot of the aftermath that comes with that including Threats and Wives that I didn't even know existed hunting me down. Which is why I don't want to converse with anyone who is married. Respectfully I know things can happen in a marriage Sometimes things fizzle out for a while and you seek company elsewhere in all its forms. Most people think I can get away with it and they do. But there are The Times when they get caught and the aftermath goes into things like extortion threats and even police Involvement. It's just crazy there are some people out there that can't be adults and think rationally. And there are some people out there that I've known to set up other people to extort money out of them by threatening exposure. We are here to express ourselves possibly find some kinship in our interests, Make some new friends Release some Stress whatever it is. Why can't we all just respect each Other. Think twice Before you get into something with someone knowing you have a significant other that you may hurt. It's not just you Who's going to get the aftermath.( By the way this is not all directed at you I'm just stating how I feel not everyone is a bad apple, There's still some good produce here🙃) But you hit it on the money.

Ive been on SW since 2018, and I may not be on here everyday, but i try to at least interact with everyone when online and be supportive and consistent. So, I do consider myself a "regular" on here. And I'm not going away.🤗🤗

This place is so fly- by-night and I am cautious about settling down. Real life has to be first. I have some very good friends here that understand my drifting but I would never not know them. Idk that’s just me.

@WillaKissing How wonderful of you to do that not a lot of people would. It's nice that you were that kind of friend. If some of us are lucky enough to make friends beyond the screen It's a Beautiful thing. I'm sorry you have to deal with all the rude people I think all of us get a dose of it. As I've explained another post I've had a friend who was extorted Here Here Who had a specific fetish interest here. And the person interacting with him Was much younger In fact it was a few people and they were pretty smart and Somehow we're able to get clues to his identity and information and even his relatives. And they threatened him that they would leak his secret. He eventually had to tell his family everything it got so out of hand. I've had a lot of married men reach out to me. When I refuse I've had them actually come back under different profiles. But it's so telltale and I always catch it thank goodness. But there was one time I made a friend He was just a friend we had a passion for writing and that was all. And we also found each other at difficult times in our lives. We helped each other through it. Somehow his wife got wind Of our friendship and then proceeded the threatening emails and phone calls. So I no longer wish to talk to any married men I don't want to anyway I know what it's like to be the wife. People can be terrible. Maybe someday I'll put up a post of exactly what I'm looking for here

@LaLumieri Thank you for the kind reply. And best of luck with your quest for finding what you are exactly looking for.

The friends I have here well the whole dang site knows I am a 100% heterosexual cross dresser that had a successful military career. I share real life experiences, jokes, progress on projects I do on my farm, and just being me. It would take a lot of communication in PMs to gain any kind of trust for me, just because of what you wrote about your friend being black mailed. Caution and slowly building a friendship is my agenda.

Bless you though.

Not happened to me. Someone perhaps. Once in a while. Usually if i have unknowingly hurt them.

Can be talked out. If too often, then surely needs some talking. And introspection too.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
No, I just blocked some people I was on friendly terms with without explanation because I saw them approving of regimes that oppress basic human rights.

Do you still have the same username and do they know you are the person they talked with before?
Or, they don't return at all. Yes, I've gotten close to many people who, one day, just disappear. I guess they think people on the internet aren't real, so they can behave any way they want with them. It's enough to make me not want to get involved with people at all.

Yeah that never feels good.
The fickleness here never ceases to amaze. I think many use it to fill voids and it's just some temporary thing to them.
LaLumieri · 51-55, F
@Magenta I believe that's exactly it. It's just crazy how you could know someone inside and Out for so long and then they just drop into the air and then resurface a few years later.
Magenta · F
@LaLumieri I have some other words for it but they aren't very nice.

Thank you for BC. 🌷

I’ve had that happen. They ghost you for so long and then you get a random message like nothing lol. Honestly most of the reason I’m not on here as much
This is what happens when you pretend to be someone else.. like a man that pretends to be female. He (she) gets a bunch of friends and they talk the girl talk and get comfortable, but after they leave and come back they have forgotten all the lies they told you before and are afraid you will call them out so they distance themselves.
It’s sad I know 😔
LaLumieri · 51-55, F
@Yourwildestdreams By the way I love your profile pic it's actually One of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in the dream to be able to Boat through something like that
@LaLumieri Thanks it’s beautiful no matter what the season . There are more scenic photos in my albums .😀
Very weird indeed. The anonymity of the internet appears to allow sanity to be optional. It’s still the Wild West out here.

Very weird but that's how it is online
That's strange
DownTheStreet · 56-60, M
It happens
They probably got caught by their spouse.

The conversations and the disappearing without notice, yes. The returning, no.
For some this place is a “people buffet”.

Try the slow torture when they used to respond to you and now all you get are hearts.
