When friends ignore you/cut you out/block you completely do you just accept it or does it drive you mad wondering why?

I get so in my head it just takes over. I put on a tough exterior but if I let someone in and develop a friendship I really struggle if it’s just gone one day, it’s like total rejection

I have had to do this with people and I do not fault them for doing it to me. Sometimes your energies are not good for each other at times and it’s nothing personal. If I care about someone, it’s love to let them go without making it about me.

@Anotherlifeform So what I'm hearing you say is you're okay with ghosting people and leaving them wonder for the next 5 years what they could have possibly done to offend you.

@LordShadowfire If it was about me I would trust them to tell me, and if they can’t, I accept that’s their choice. I’ve not spoken with people for years, even parted on not so good terms, and we reconvene as changed people. People grow. Let them.

@Anotherlifeform Ghosting is for cowards. That's all I've got to say.

@LordShadowfire Coward is label. Have you never lacked courage?

You are entitled to your feelings. I know the sting, I’ve been the stinger, simply offering another perspective.
