Missing a friend.

Hi all. Hope your all doing well.
I don't spend a lot of time here anymore......to be honest, i'm kinda 'over' social media in the main.
Real life is so busy, i've learned to not to become embroiled in added drama online and enjoy peace and quiet in my rare pockets of spare time. A lesson that took years to learn, and caused me lots of ( mostly unnecessary) emotional stresses and worries over situations and people that didn't didn't deserve my time.
Heck....lots of the stuff I was told, the people I thought of were pals ... was all made up, fake.
I tried being a good friend and support others.
I always thought of my online friends as real people with real problems.....but I found out the hard way on more than one occassion that thats not always the case.

Anyway.....the point of this post. Another of my friends here on SW is missing in action and has been since last May. A very fine fellow whom i've corresponded with here for many years. I had no doubts at all this person was anything other than he claimed to be and the last person I thought would ghost me or disappear. ( but hey....i've been wrong on that score before...many times! Lol ) Our correspondense had dwindled a little as reallife situations limited our time here, but his last message to me was upbeat. He has not replied to emails either. I really hope nothing awful has happened to him. 😟

I lost a few of my old ep friends to death and found out because I either googled their real name and found their death notice or relatives contacted me via email or on fb. One dear Canadian friend just stopped the contact and I don't know why and forbid myself to think that something bad happened to him.
I send good vibes your way and hope that your friend is doing well.

@Rickichickie That's very sad- I am very sorry for your losses. Usually we have no idea why people suddenly disappear from a social-medium site.

I don't spend much time on SW now either. My reasons are mostly different from yours, though I can certainly relate to being busy in real life. This place has to take a back seat to that.

Hope your friend is okay and you hear from him soon.
Maybe he is just busy too with real life? I was away for 2 years before I started using SW again. I actually often disappear from this site because it can get boring and tiring. But yeah, I hope your friend is doing okay.

@FR0Z3NY0GURT of course, theres lots of reasons. I just wish I knew nothing awful has happened to him.

I take online like the wind, it's soft it can be chaotic or unexistent. I just do not bet on it. I allow it to be. Hopefully he returns but real life is always the forefront and somethings can not be avoided. Either way i hope you find positives either way. Be well

Same here. I lost 2 friends without any explanation as to why they are not responding to me anymore.

Difficult to know. You're always welcome back! 🤗
Real life is more important than this place ...people on here are too flakey to have any real type of friendships ...I'm over it ...

@chernobylplaygr0unds yeap.....i'm with you.
I just wish I knew what happened to this friend. Such a lovely guy and a good pal.

If you message hin, it will come up on his email ♥

@RubySoo for some unknown reason he has chosen to ignore you which is sad and hurtful to you ♥
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@antonioioio i can handle that....but knowing him as i did, that doesn't seem like the sort of thing he'd do without very good reason. Just makes me think he may be ill, incapacitated......or god forbid worse!
antonioioio · 70-79, M
@RubySoo your a caring person
I do hope that you find out what has become of him ♥
Rubyyyy <3 all my love
