    Sly,

    It can be disconcerting when someone you feel so close to and have communicated on such a frequent and regular basis to have suddenly, without warning stop.

    I have had that happen to me several times.  I have worked on the Buddhist tenet where the source of suffering is attachment.  Plus working on understanding that it’s not about me but the other person.  Then there is the anger along with the hurt where there is no closure from my friend when they stopped communicating or returning my messages.

    All of that had been difficult and still is for me.  I believe that the sooner I accept of reality, of what is, the sooner I will be feeling OK.

    Plus there is that belief on trusting that whatever happens, that will all work out for the best.

    Remember, it’s only been a few days so self soothe yourself and don’t go into total abandonment mode of thinking.

    Thank you, Mark.   You’re right, I’m attached and it’s causing me suffering.

    There’s this terrible irony I can’t get over about how we were in the same city for years and never connected and as soon as she moves away I fall for her.  What a trip.

    Dear Sly:

    Maybe she vanished a few days ago because she was in an accident or maybe she is unwell. Did you check so to rule out these unfortunate possibilities?

    Good, Sly. I hope you are okay too, physically, emotionally.
