@UndercoverBard you missed your twin
UndercoverBard · 31-35, M
@SW-User oh hey twin
hunkalove · 61-69, M
@UndercoverBard Now that JohnnyO is gone you are pretty much the King of SW, Bardy.
I take a lot of breaks here and there. I started here six years ago and my longest break was about six months.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@DarkHeaven awe 🥹

@Ashly I miss the funny banter when I leave ...I just leave when this place is overwhelming
Ashly · 26-30, F

I take breaks all the time, this place is really bad for my mental health
Ashly · 26-30, F
@SW-User I’m sorry you had to deal with that 🥺
I’m here if you ever need to talk
SW-User
@Ashly that’s kind, I’m ok, I just limit my time here
Ashly · 26-30, F
@SW-User that’s what i should probably do ♥️
Thank you
deadteddy · 26-30, F
I have taken a 6 month break I think. One day I’ll leave this website for good and never come back. That’s when I’ll know my life has gotten the way I’ve always dreamed it to be. . .
Lilymoon · F
I've taken breaks and deactivated once.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Lilymoon You still here? 🙄🤭
Lilymoon · F
@Degbeme Yes. Boooo!!! 👻
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Lilymoon *pee`s a little* 😱
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
I’ve taken multiple year plus breaks
But you spend so much time with the people on here they really do become a part of you and it’s hard to stay away
You just kinda check in and maybe just PM a few people here and there and before you know it you’re a full blown SWeep again
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
@Ashly We all take breaks here or there
You need to

You take some time to yourself and your friends will be here with open arms when you’re ready to come back
Ashly · 26-30, F
JRVanguard · 26-30, M
@Ashly You can also give your snap or phone number, etc to people you want to stay in touch with
There’s people from here I talk to almost every day but couldn’t tell you the last time we’ve interacted on here before😅

thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M
Yeah, take breaks every once in a while. Usually only for half a day or so though, I'm just so used to being here now. XD
@thepreposterouspanda my fav dork. Hope you are well. You know I worry.
thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M
@DarkHeaven Not doing too bad minus wrestling with some depression and the usual list of nonsense haha.

I hope you're doing well too! :3
@thepreposterouspanda I’m alive… so there’s that. I won’t go into a lot of detail but it’s been a rough month, especially the last couple weeks. Life is strange, my friend… and I’m the strangest. 🖤
cerealguy · 26-30, M
I left for about a year ,_,

Then I returned

Then I started hopping on people's alts

Then I made my own account right before a [b]permanent[/b] departure 💀
cerealguy · 26-30, M
@Ashly yeeeeeee

Trust me, I'm down to talk about whatever whenever :v

So long as I am online and free
Ashly · 26-30, F
@cerealguy

I’ll hit you up when you’re asleep then 😂
cerealguy · 26-30, M
@Ashly 😂
Ngl, I do be sleepin randomly fr
Ducky · 31-35, F
Yep. Once for months after I had major surgery and severe depression afterwards. Was content with everyone believing I had died, but here I am now.
@Ducky 🖤🖤🖤
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Ducky we’re all here for you ♥️
Pfuzylogic · M
Been here everyday since it started and was there for the bloody mess on EP. I did get suspended for 3 months. They offered me a one day suspension but said they would expel me if one person complained.
I don’t gamble like that! 😁
bookerdana · M
Not formally,I just don't log in..no muss,no fuss✌️
Ashly · 26-30, F
@bookerdana I see, everyone’s different
And they have their reasons for leaving or coming back
bookerdana · M
@Ashly I'm mostly here for fun
Ashly · 26-30, F
@bookerdana same lol
I think about it sometimes
@Ashly there's a lot of good ones here. That's what kept me here 😀
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Bexsy a few good needles in the haystack
@Bexsy 🖤
Beautywithin · 36-40, F
May times! Over a year is longest ive left, not much keeps me hanging around, everyone i pretty much used to speak too has now gone.
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Yup, just came back from more than a month break.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Jeephikelove what made you came back? Or may I ask what was the reason?
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
@Ashly well I’ve been on here since it’s inception, I have quite a few great friends that I missed and others that I missed too.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Jeephikelove wow, I’ve only been on here a few months
I can see why you came back thought. There are some pretty cool people on here 😊
Isthisit · F
I havent been on here for about 9-10 months. First time back on since then. I dont want to deactivate my account.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
Ive deactivated many times, but never for very long. I think the longest ive been away was about 4 months back in the early days, before i'd really gotten involved in the community. Since then i've left after feeling bullied, or threatened, but in the last 2 years I've changed how i use this place and dont get so involved, so i haven't felt the need to step away.
PerfectionOfTheHeart · 46-50, F
Yeah, have taken several breaks lasting weeks to months. Life gets busy or complicated so breaks will happen, as they should. Don’t think I’ll ever officially deactivate though. I’ll just clean up my profile and leave one day to never return. Knowing there’ll be a little piece of me left behind here…well, I think that’s kinda neat.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@PerfectionOfTheHeart I love that, come and go as you please
pentacorn · F
oh, yes, a few times. longest break was about 3 mo.s

yes, i've considered deactivating before, but i'd probably just not sign back in if i decided to leave.
pentacorn · F
@Ashly i just don't see the point in deactivating. a good break goes a long way. it's nice to be able to come back after a while. i've taken breaks enough to know that 3 days is all it takes to break the desire to login daily
Ashly · 26-30, F
@pentacorn I’m still debating it
I’ll probably try a break before I deactivate, if I do
pentacorn · F
@Ashly yeah... take it easy on yourself. you just might form a less-often habit after your break
Benjago · 41-45, M
Lots of breaks and quite a few deactivations. Usually gone for 5 or 6 months and then come back. A couple breaks were longer, maybe a year. Guess some life struggles have been kind of taken out on this place over the years.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Benjago I’ve only been here a few months, and I have felt it overwhelming at times, I can understand what you mean
chasingThursday · 36-40, M
I left a few times but always came back after a few months
chasingThursday · 36-40, M
@Ashly Sometimes I find myself spending too much time on here or not getting attention so I take a break. Or I just get annoyed with all the negativity. But then I get super lonely and come back
Ashly · 26-30, F
@chasingThursday that’s how I’ve been feeling lately
I spend way too much time on here 😕
chasingThursday · 36-40, M
@Ashly it can get addicting
I've deleted my account twice.
This is my 3rd account.
Both times I stayed away for a couple of years or so.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@thinkingoutloud Did you miss it? What made you come back?
@Ashly Both times I have come back, it's been because I have had some kind of stuckness or lull in my life. This becomes a place for procrastination, distraction and so on and whenever something like that is going on in my life, the pull to this place is stronger. Because of what it offers.
Otherwise, no - I generally do not miss this place.
Ontheroad · M
No, but I haven't been here long... I come and go, more active some days, not active soem days... it's a mood thing.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Ontheroad I see you around lol
Ontheroad · M
@Ashly Yep, that's me... I'm around.
I come and go. I don’t give advance notice or announcement if I plan to take breaks. I just don’t log in for a few days, weeks, even months.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@CookieCrumbs I respect that ♥️
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
Left and came back so many times,surprised I haven't won an award for most erratic member
I fuqed off for a year and a bit. Cameback and now I'm just floating in the background.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Teggy that’s an interesting way of describing it 😂 lol
Nebula · 41-45, F
Yeah sometimes I leave. I would like to leave forever some day, hahaha. All social media really
Deleted account and was away for 2 years
Ashly · 26-30, F
@BeefySenpie you can delete it again it’s fine 😂 I’m joking lol
Did you ever think about this place while you were away?
@Ashly Only just before returning
JSmith75 · 46-50, M
I tried but I kept coming back
Ashly · 26-30, F
@JSmith75 was it the people? Content? I’m just curious
JSmith75 · 46-50, M
@Ashly people because I have so many people on here I miss
I think it only lasted 5 or 6 days, and I came back.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@MsSwan you’re a SW regular, I see you around all the time 😊
i sleep at night sometimes...
Ashly · 26-30, F
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout go back to bed 🛌
Ashly · 26-30, F
@smiler2012 have you ever considered it?
smiler2012 · 56-60
@Ashly 😆lol you do not get rid of me that easy you know
Ashly · 26-30, F
@smiler2012 I wasn’t trying to get rid of you 😂 I was just asking a question lol
HairbrushDiva · 31-35, F
I do take breaks from time to time.
angie8819 · 56-60, F
Yeah a few times
hunkalove · 61-69, M
Nice photo!
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
I have left for months at a time. I kinda wanna delete my account at times. If they didn’t make it so hard to delete everything I may have deleted.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ashly You’re welcome 🩷
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@DarkHeaven Nice to see you back 🩷🩷🩷
@iamonfire696 ty 🦋🦋
3Dogmatic · 46-50, M
I took a year or so off, I’m too lazy to deactivate my account though. I know I will be back, so no sense in turning it off.
Mudkip · 31-35, M
Nope, haven't been here that long yet
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Mudkip your new icon is gone lol
You’re officially a regular on SW now 😂
Mudkip · 31-35, M
@Ashly yes yes I know, it's gone 😩
Ig I'm a regular now like yall 😬
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Mudkip one of us!!!
WildHeart · 41-45, F
Many times, I recently got back from a long long break. Still trying to find my way around.
Took a break for four years. Thought of leaving several times.
UnlikeableAndy · 36-40, M
I took a bit of a break when I had a GF. Like 6 months ish
Yes and yes.
I deactivated my last account and then when I came back I had a month's break at some point.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@V00doo that’s reasonable, there’s a few good people on here. Being away from from wouldn’t be easy for me either
@Ashly I like it here because I can choose what noise I want to here. My real world is too loud.
SW-User
Several times. I think I'm on account number three.
DDonde · 31-35, M
Yep. I've taken a few some month long breaks before.
Ashly · 26-30, F

Where else would I slack off from work?
