Another repost from about a year ago. When exactly did it go up? We might never know because shhhh ... it's a secret. Fet doesn't let us see the dates on our own posts. I kid you not.
----------------
I hope not, but I noticed that Cinna_B deactivated. I hope that's only temporary.
I only got to interact with her briefly, but she was a thoughtful, helpful delight and I felt lucky to have met her. She is the reason I'm still on Fetlife (and I'll say more about that, later). I hope she'll be back.
I fell out of touch with her, not because I didn't enjoy her company (alas, from a distance), but because I got tied up with drama and bullshit, some of it online and some of it offline. The latter just has to be dealt with, but I'm learning how to avoid the former.
One should never allow oneself to be distracted from that which and those who matter, but that which doesn't. When I find myself dropping out of contact with people who quickly started becoming good friends just because I'm dealing with some crazy person who started ranting about who knows what, that's exactly what I'm doing - getting my priorities wrong.
I'd hate to think that I missed out on the chance to make a friend, that way.
