What if I just disappeared? No phone to reach me, no place of residence, no way to contact me via internet. No friends, family members, or acquaintances having any idea where I went off to. Sometimes this thought really appeals to me and it is becoming moreso. I'm growing more concerned that I find this option increasingly attractive...

Well!!!

You have a few friends that I know of who want to stay in contact with you, but it's difficult when you're always at work :-P!!!!!!

You would be missed very much!!!

I don't have to be present for someone to leave me a message. What if I had changed my name and moved far away and didn't tell ANYONE? Then no one who previously knew me would be able to contact me. Kind of scary that this happens.

Re: Well!!!

It is sad that such things happen with others, but unless you make a concerted effort yourself to do this, there are a few of us for sure, and most likely even more than that, who don't want to loose contact with you!!!!!

I've felt this way before so I can relate. For me it was because I was depressed. But I also feel that way sometimes when I just wanna be alone (perhaps 'cause I'm sick of people around me). Either way, I have felt this way before. What do you think brought on these feelings for you?

[blackstarraven]

Nah, it's not depression this time (although I did think of that when I was depressed, but I usually considered suicide more). My co-worker and I were talking on Tuesday and she said how one of her friends had completely disappeared and no one had heard from him or knew where he was. That's what kicked this thought into gear. With that being said, I could never really do something like that because I would miss friends and family too much! It's an erratic thought that doesn't really stick because it appeals to me for a couple of hours, but most of the time I want to be around those I love and care about.

if you totally disappeared, who would i move to mass with? I would totally miss you..even though we don't talk much, i still have that innate roomie telepathy in knowing that you are alright....ok so most of the time roomies don't have teleptathy, but it was worth a shot...and as strong bad says in one of his emails "we are like bousomest buddies" sorry i cant be around to give you a hug... here is one from edmeston (((HUG))) (and that is one of the biggest and bestest hugs ever)

[blackstarraven]

It's true, I could never leave my "bosomest buddy!" Haha, good ol' strong bad. Thanks for the hug! It truly was one of the biggest and bestest hugs ever!

That would be truly, truly sad. I have a friend from High school who I was best friends with from Kindergarten through senior year. Then after that she got married and kind of left. I wasn't able to find a way to get in contact with her. 6 years later, I still really really miss her. I had wanted her to be in my wedding, and had no way to contact her. Don't cut people off, who care about you. And we do! :) *hugs*

I still laugh about how long it took me to figure out the whole "who the heck is Legs??" thing. :)

[blackstarraven]

Awww, I'm sorry! That is really sad and highly unfortunate! I hope you one day find her again! Thanks girl, I appreciate the words of encouragement and the hug.

Haha, I love it when people first hear about my nickname and are so curious as to why I am called Legs.

[nixorbo]

All I remember from that story is that it involves a dirty, dirty joke.

You'd better not drop out of contact, or so, God help me, I will hunt you down and ...

Take pictures of you and post them online? I dunno, I hadn't gotten that far in my thought process.

[blackstarraven]

It comes from the pick-up line "The word of the day is legs, let's go home and spread the word." I was all about them pick-up lines back in the day! *Reminisces her freshman year* Those were the days....

And not a picture, anything but that! It'll take more than that to stop me, mwahahahahaha!*

*All it takes is my bosomest of buddies to text me saying her feet are muddy, hehe.

Wow, we'd all be lost if you suddenly disappeared!!! I think about you a lot girl and wonder how things are going. And gosh darn it if you disappeared from all our many technological contact resources, I'd find you! I know where you live!!!! ;) I sure wish we talked more and could hang out more. Life after college is still an adjustment ya know? IT's so much harder to feel closer to people, especially when tthey are all spread out and seem so busy and involved in their own lives! IT's easier to feel connected and appreciated when they live either in the bunk above you or down the hall or across the incredibly small campus. ;) But real friendships are worth the continual effort despite the time and changes and distances of life. Hang in there girl!!! You've got many great friends who wouldn't let you get away with losing contact! ;) And who would I watch and drool over Christian Bale with?!?!?!?!?! ;)

[blackstarraven]

Thanks girl! Yeah, I'm personally terrible at keeping in touch with others, even though I care about them a great deal. I just feel that everyone's lives are so much more exciting and everyone has these big plans and knows where they are going (either in relationships, career, or both) and I feel like I have nothing to bring to the table in conversation because I am so boring. So naturally, I don't keep in contact because of this. It's stupid, but that's how I feel. And I know that a lot of people still don't have their life figured out. So escaping and starting completely over has its appeal, but I could never do it because I value the relationships I already have.

[natureluver12]

Aw girl you are FAR FROM boring! we've had many a great convo, anywhere from nature and deer, to movies, and hot guys, and how many times i've vented to you and you give a great listening ear and advice, and how many times you crack me up cuz with your way of thinking is very hysterical and creative and interesting. You are so enjoyable to hang out with! I still go to frisbee events cuz you go! You talk to me and we laugh together and have a great time! If you weren't going, I wouldn't!
