Someone on a forum I've been going to for years disappeared in the middle of writing a fanfic, and we have no clue what happened. The last we heard her home computer was broken, and she got into huge trouble from her boss for using the internet at work. So we're not sure if that has something to do with it. The really weird thing is that a close forum friend of hers sent her a PM, and she saw that it had been read - but never responded to. This was years ago, probably 2002ish, and even though a lot of us are still there, she's never popped back in. I've always been a bit concerned, though really, my guess is between getting in trouble and not having a home computer, she needed a break, and just fell out of sync. But I do wish she'd let us know she's okay, even all these years later. :/

Also, I don't think this was the above friend because we never talked on MSN, but YEARS ago my Mom and I shared a computer, and one day my Mom told me she got an IM for me saying "Hi! It's been years!" For some reason my Mom closed it, meaning I never knew who it was. :(

Honestly, it's possible she never really felt as close with forum members as they did her. I saw that happen a lot in fandom - without face to face interaction you can't tell as easily when a seemingly close relationship is mutual. Especially if she ignored a PM.

Speaking from personal experience, it's probably depression related. Sometimes when you fall off the radar because of life disasters, you fall HARD. And then you feel embarrassed about it so you avoid the people you used to know, even though they wouldn't be mean or anything, they just want to know if you're okay. Somehow it just feels like too much effort and that everyone would be better off without you.

AYRT - I'm not sure about depression, I certainly hope not! But I do think you're onto something, where she was frustrated with things and when she finally got back it just seemed fruitless trying to re-establish her old relationships.
