Had a friend I had made here on PB send a message that said their last entry would in fact be the very last. Sort of made me sad because I really enjoyed their entries.
Why does that affect me so much?
It’s not like I knew them personally… There was still a connection. Its like when the networks cancel your favorite show - it feels like they are part of your inner circle. There’s some humor in that.
It’s the same way with people I’m friends with on other social media sites. Life gets busy and your circle gets smaller. It gets harder to answer messages or leave them. It makes me wonder in a way that makes me sad.
I hope them the very best and wish them much success in all they do…and if you are reading this and decide one day to just up and never speak again - know that at least one of your online counterparts does get emotionally attached to this pseudo friendship we have here and I genuinely hope that you know that you ARE special to at least one person in this world.
