I kind of think that's so douchey when people just disappear because suddenly they aren't into it anymore. I understand it, especially since so many people were so young when they started up in the fandom, but to just kind of not bother to say anything to people at one point you talked to all the time, just let's you see how disposable we can be as friends to them.

I don't 'roll' like that lol


Thanks guys!  :)

I have to agree, that is a douchey thing to do. Even if I stopped writing, I'd still talk to everyone. I would miss you all too much!

Yes, I can't understand it either, especially when people chatted all the time then went missing.

I think it's awful when people just vanish like that.  It happened with a bunch of girls I used to talk to on the Take That site.  We used to talk all the time, even met up on a number of occasions too, but then the site closed and some of them lost their love for Take That when Robbie re-joined and I've not heard from them since!  Shame really, but they obviously weren't very good friends after all :(

That really sucks! And you're right, it just shows that in the end they weren't real friends. Ick!

I've lost contact with most all of my Lipsticks that I used to work on the site with.  I am super sad about that because I thought we had bonded beyond just working on the site together.  I even told them all that just because they weren't working on the site anymore that it didn't mean we couldn't chat but they are gone, I've lost all but a couple into oblivion. 

Maybe some people don't want to remember that they were once silly enough about the boys to work on a humor site.  Trying to push that out of their past or something.  It is what it is, but it's upsetting.

I'm not sad about not talking one person from my past, we really don't mesh due to age differences and her personality change.

Yeah, sometimes people just drift naturally, but it's sad when you are dismissed just because they are done with the fandom or fanfic whatever it is. Major personality changes suck too. I notice that mostly with people who were really young and immature to start out with.
