Sometimes I wonder about the people who ghost me, both here on DW and on other platforms.
Was it something I said or did? Was it stuff going on in their lives? How did I come to drop off the radar?
I'm not hurt, exactly. Or perhaps it's more correct to say that I don't take it personally. Relationships need maintenance and/or commonality, and as commonality fades, a great many of us in these spaces are not good at maintenance - in some ways, that's why we came to these spaces.
But I still wonder sometimes.
