Try looking at it this way

A few months ago my beloved grandmother died of cancer. It all happened very quick even though the doctors had told us the cancer was in remission.
So naturally her death shocked me. I couldn't even be at her funeral because I was in the midst of finals and living on the other side of the country.

From one day to the next I found myself in a state of depression and grief and I didn't feel like talking to anyone about it, so I just told my group of fandom friends I'd be on a hiatus for an unknown amount of time and - my inbox almost exploded. They wouldn't leave me alone, they wanted to know what happened, they very aggressively told me they suspected me of trying to create drama. Half of them suddenly revealed their paranoia; they talked to each other about how they thought I was taking a break because of them. Others then labeled me an attention whore.

Needless to say I dropped out of this particular circle of "fandom friends".
So you see, when people care too much about you it can get really nasty real quick.

Btw, investing in your RL friendships is never wrong. But you can have both. It's not an "either or" situation.
