Wondering…

So…
I was reading some blogs and then just had a thought…

Do you ever wonder why some people you meet and you end up anum cara – and some people just pass out of your existence and it’s like they never were? And then there’s the parts in between?
I’m pretty sure Diz had a blog about this at one point. I need to go see if I can find it. But- anyway.

I was thinking about internet people, but it could probably apply to regular people as well.

You meet someone and you are completely the best of friends – and then – suddenly – you never talk any more. Maybe it takes a couple months – or maybe it’s just like someone slammed a door on you in a single instant.

I was wondering that today.

Wondering what happened to those people who used to be my close internet friends and now it’s like those people and I never met, never exchanged personal information, talked through dramas, life stories, whatever.

You know. Just wondering what changed. Was it me? Did I not keep up enough contact? Was it them? Was it both of us? Or did I just change – or them? Did what we needed out of life change?

I don’t know.

But I was wondering….

    In most cases, it’s because of some “real life” situtation changes and things are not the same as before. In my case, I had that stroke and wasn’t able to get online, let alone blog or chat. raspberry although I did manage to moblog. raspberry but yeah it’s weird like that. but you know your real friends are the same friends that you just talk to again and it’s like you never stopped talking. I have a few friends like that.

    <3 the Yoshi. (;

    (And I need to figure out what’s up with my smileys… >.>)

    It could be like that. I could see how that would be. I also <3 the friends where you just start talking again after months and it’s like you never stopped. (;
    Wooo.

    (Need new smileys. Must find. Want red ones. SQUARE ones. Or something.)

    Haha very Deja Vu! I just posted in my own Blog about how I had lost touch with some and kept close ties with others in my time online. I hear ya! Though! I’d say I feel ya but..that puts my mind in a very non PG place.

    First: Bloglines sucks! It told me you’d updated all month so far… THIS MORNING!

    Second: Hrm. I wonder if it was pre-photoblog or post-photoblog that I wrote that one. It was the whole “people come into and out of your life for a reason” thing, right?

    I’m sorry. πŸ™ I’m one of the ones who disappeared. I blame life and lack of a real job forcing my online time devoted to scrounging for work. :S

    But you know, you can always IM me and I’ll answer if I’m not busy. raspberry

    i disappeared a bit too, as far as blog and IM. However I am *always* twittering! LOL! I just really needed (and still need) to focus a bit more on real life. There are things I left on “auto-pilot” for far too long…

    Tweet me, Twitter me!! wink

  7. Pandora says:

    That was the one, Diz. I don’t remember if it was pre or post photolog. Hrmmm. I want to say – after? I’m not sure.
    But I do remember that from there.

  8. Pandora says:

    @Danalyn – Pfft. You haven’t REALLY disappeared. I know where to find you. XD And if I talk to you, you’ll answer, so -really. You aren’t exactly lost, just – focused on something else. (;

    @Daniel – same thing. I know where to find you. (; You do twitter and whatnot. So – It’s all fine! (=

    <3 you both!!

    I find it’s just the wave of things. To be technical it’s probably something in the “conversational interests” change. Lives change and if you don’t do something to wildly insult the other, then there’s nothing to do but drift. You still like the person and respect the person, but for some reason there’s this sudden distance.
