wiked Anton Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 nevermind, sometimes people move on, interests change. sometimes people get to know you better and dont wuite like you as much as they thought they did. It is an opportunity for you to grow and spend times doing other things, widen your own interests, and maybe even find an even greater friend...xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amethyst Jetaime Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 In my 6+ years I've made a lot of friends and most of them have eventually moved on or left SL. It happens. But I am also fortunate enough to have some friends that I have known for years and years. Sometimes we go through periods in our relationship where we don't see much of each other but after a while that will change. In my experience it is for reasons that have nothing to do with me. For example: Maybe your friend is having some issues, not with you, but just needs some alone time. Maybe they found someone special that is taking up their time but they aren't ready to announce it to the world yet. Maybe they found some new interest that has galvanized their attention. Just go on with your life and hang out with other friends of find new ones. Occasionally drop them an IM just asking how they are but not pushing for anything more. When they are ready they'll let you know. If they are as good a friend as you say they will eventually miss you and come back. If not, well by hanging out with others you won't be at such a loss. Friends come and go in SL as well as they do in RL. It is just part of life. People that have a friend they've known for years and years and that they still see regularly are fortunate because it is rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart form that bit, I've had the same thing happen to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Monday Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm sorry..it hurts when a good friend leaves SL. I've been through it too. I agree with most of the other posts...need to just move on. They may need some space...when they're ready, they'll come back to you. HUGS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orca Flotta Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The main difference is the IMing on login. I couldn't cope with that - I'd feel crowded. Zacly, Phil. Isn't it terrrible to log into SL with a full list of stuffz to do and lotsa plalns in your head ... only to be welcomed by 376 notices and a dozen IMs? And of course, since you're mostly a friendly person you click away the notices but answer all the IMs. And with a bit of bad luck half of the ppl are online and they ... respond and get you tangled up in discussions and ideas and dramas and whatnots. So aftre 1 hour you're still standing where you logged in, haven't moved an inch and by now totally forgotten that you initially logged in with the purpose to test a boat / go shopping / do reasearch for your blog / you name it. Sometimes I think it would be nice if my friendslist would shrink for 90%. :matte-motes-evil-invert: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I think it would be nice if my friendslist would shrink for 90%. :matte-motes-evil-invert: Could not agree more. My friends list is relatively small because I generally keep it to friends, not everyone to whom I've ever said hi. I even have several friends where we are not on each others' friends list because we know we can just pull up the other's profile and IM if we wish to contact the other. Fortunately there is currently no one on my friends list who does the instant login IM thing, but one person irked me with doing this constantly until I muted him for awhile. He's now unmuted, we had a "chat" and he doesn't do that anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Laval Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 It may be simply that they want some space, not that they no longer feel close to you, speak to the person, we all need space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokyo Enyo Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Make a new you, find something new to do.. or just leave and come back.. It is your choice, nobody will force you to return.. and 'm not being rude about that bit, it's refreshing to leave and see the world outside and then come back and realize what oyu may or may have not missed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
