Would you miss folks

There ARE medications for that, you know ...

I've been on several forums over the years where I felt that we were all family, that we shared common bonds and divulged our inner secrets to each other, and that we would miss anyone who disappeared for a time.

Forums such as:


  • FurriesUnite.com
  • EricEstradaFanClub.com
  • MudLuvvers.net
  • FindTheGreenM&M.org

Those were such wonderful days on those forums! Telling stories, laughing and crying together, meeting behind dumpsters in dark Chinese restaurant parking lots ...

*sigh*

Yes, even though, I haven't been around very long, there are people, who I would miss their presence if they stopped posting here. There are for sure people here that add something to my day, make me smile just by reading some of their postings and those even some that have gone above and beyond what I expect and they are greatly appreciated.

Well said April, I feel the same way about folks here;) I tend to isolate at times, and stay away, but when I come back, I realize how much a truly miss people here;)
 
It's really nice to see how close all the folks here have gotten even if you've never met each other. The world needs nice folks like all of you that's for sure!
 

OMG Phil,

You are such a hoot, I would miss your horribly if you ever left. I know we all gotta go sometime, so guess we'll just make the best of times while we have it;)

I guess you know I'm leaving now to check out those forums :lofl::wave:

That's all we really can do - one moment at a time, live in the present, because the future isn't written.


... it IS available on DVD, but I haven't picked it up yet. :(

Is this real, I'm headed for imdb to find out, LOL!! It sure wouldn't surprise me, 'course I guess we do have a lot of movies that like to show us their take on what the future holds;)
 
I can actualy credit this forum with saving my life, and saving my sanity. There are people in this forum that literally pulled me from my grief.
I too miss the some old friends, and I think there needs to be a list with a family member or a good friend that we can call to see if they are alright. If something bad happens to our freinds they will not be able to answer their own emails, and maybe even their phones. :tapfoot:
 
When I have removed myself from a forum I can honestly say I haven't missed any of the posters. I don't regard forums anymore than I would regard a game, which I indulge in when I have a few minutes to spare during the day.
 
I am new here and just learning my way around....on other boards had on line friends and than the boards dwindled away and so did the friends...same with facebook, I guess people just need change every so often.....but I find that true in many of the blogs I read they fall by the way side .....can you have on line friends...they are like imaginary friends only they talk back...

A close friend on another forum died a few months ago. I never met her in person, but I miss her terribly! In a strange way, I considered her one of my best friends. You don't have to meet in person to be very close to a person; our minds meet on these boards, and that's what counts.

So sorry, Sunny. :(

I lost an online friend on Facebook that I had been in some groups with on Eons, a boomer forum. She died a couple of months ago waiting for a kidney transplant. Her husband posted on her page to let all her friends know.
