I had problems coping, and needed some time to myself. Everything seemed to be my fault and needed to go trough the stages of grief before coming back. Now I realize that I was played as a fool, and most of my problems are not all my fault. Finally going from denial to anger.
I didn’t know that I was missed?

Everybody needs time to themselves.
I infer you are too smart to be played as a fool. Reconsider.
Be careful about anger. It goes nowhere.

@RedDeer I think you’re a valuable member and always read your posts.

I’ve left before if I got too upset, like all the Christian bashing a few years ago. We dont have to agree but intentionally hurting each other is not my thing.

Life.

I didn’t think about the people who missed me. But I did think about the people who I missed.

Of Course .
Either way me missing them or them missing me.
I think of them often but not to the point of not getting on with my life.
Why did I leave?
To grow and get on with my life as they did as well.
Sometimes its best to leave a situation to get a clearer perspective to make goals to move ahead and not always think on the past.

I was bursting for the loo.

I didn’t leave. Because I am smart enough, to understand that not everyone is going to agree with me . And I have the balls to stand up to those who want me gone…

If we actually communicate with each other, instead of knee jerk reactions, we can usually find that we all have more in common, than we think. And form bonds, that would never have existed, if we’d just walked away…

We’re all human. And have different opinions. That’s the cool thing about a debate forum. If we have the patience to learn about our differences, we are all stronger, and better off, by listening to another person’s point of view.

If you have a problem with another jelly. Talk to them. You will learn something about them, and maybe yourself. If you bail. You’re missing out on an opportunity to grow intellectually. And make friends, whim you wouldn’t have otherwise.

Think of arguing with a person who you never met, in say traffic .Turns out. That person might be a lot like you, because you are both passionate.

I recommend that every jelly, tries to understand each other. Rather than tuck tail.I promise. You’ll gain knowledge from the other jelly, in the process. Knowledge, is power…

Since this isn’t in Meta, I’m not assuming it’s about Fluther. The answer is the same in any case, I’ve never left. I walked out on a reconciliation week with a boyfriend who had betrayed once years ago and ended it with a lover a year or two ago, but for the most part, I’ve stayed and others have left me. I’m not sure what that means.

I didn’t leave but there was quite a while (about 6 months) while I was traveling and had no internet, or I was taking care of a mentally ill and very sick grandchild. I just didn’t have the emotional or mental energy for Fluther.
