[quote="AladdinsGenie"]I have a long standing theory that we as humans weren't meant to be exposed to this much information and "social" media at once. Our generation was basically the guinea pigs for what would happen in terms of our mental, physical and emotional health in the long run having so many ideas and thoughts and images and messages and news in our faces constantly. As a result, it's becoming more and more common for people to take the kind of breaks that your friend did just to give yourself some mental reprieve. It sucks to lose that source of connection when you're going through some things yourself, but giving them space might be what's best for them to cope right now with what's bothering them. It may not be you-you specifically so much as something you're posting about or reminding them of that they can't handle right now. If when they come back and you two are still in a place in your individual lives to be friends again on good terms, then that's great. But I'd definitely do a follow up to make sure this isn't something that won't be repeated later on down the road if it's more related to something you did specifically that maybe you didn't realize you were doing.

As for that forum guy, he's a dick :lol:. Sounds like one of those people who "helps" you, but it's all an empty gesture curated to make them feel better about themselves and look good to others. I'd keep receipts if I were you so if you see him doing that same routine with others they can be warned. I'm always weary of people offering help that soon in to a friendship when you hardly know the person but that's just me.

But maybe you should take a break from that forum? Find somewhere else to hang out at and have fun. I hear discord is hot and popping with the kids lately :lol:[/quote]
