Anybody here had friends who left SL without a word?

Apparently quite a few folks are doing searches these days that are bringing back tons of old posts.  Oh well, I guess if the topic is still relevant to someone...

Yes, it happens all of the time. Then again, I'm usually the one who leaves without a word and it normally happens when life either gets too busy for SL, or SL becomes too boring and I just take a break. Sometimes I notify my friends that I'm leaving, but most of the time I don't.

I've only been using my account for a few weeks now and it's already happened once.

As it seems, a lot of people have friendships and even relationships in SL but don't consider them "real". Whenever something in their RL changes, it'll be easier for those to just walk away, or so it seems. I try to get a feel for how closely linkes people's SL and RL are, so I know not to expect more commitment than they're planning to give.
