I always wonder, regarding those that want to "take a break from here", why they feel the need to broadcast it one last time? If it were me, I'd just go! I think they are looking to feel needed by everyone begging them not to go. Just my humble opinion. 


My opinion differs from yours, but that is OK.  I think it is a courteous thing to do, especially for a prolific, well liked poster whose absence would be noticed.  Annabelle certainly doesn't have a need "to feel needed by everyone". From her posts she appears to have a life filled with wonderful family and friends who adore and appreciate her.

@Annabellethecat66, I so understand why you want to take a break.  I always enjoy your posts, and you are a very interesting and genuinely good person.  It's one thing for someone to disagree with a poster, but nastiness is another thing.  Please enjoy your break and come back refreshed.

This world can be a cruel place sometimes, and filled with imperfect people ... but you were put into this world to bring sunshine and 'light' to many ... that is your gift to use anyway you desire.

Ah, come on now Annabelle since when have you ever minced words when it came to your opinion? Never here that is for sure...

 

What will we ever do without your critiques of Raturo's looks and Abby's clothing?

 

Just kidding but enjoy your break. I am sure you will come back refreshed and ready for another critique of our sinking ship show "The Young and the Restless."

I think if Annabelle went missing, many people would be concerned and wonder if she was alright. In my opinion, her announcement will prevent worry and speculation.

annabellethecat,  you know how much I enjoy you but I have also found - from personal experience - that a break from here does wonders.   

 

Wishing you and your wonderful family the best.  Heart

Re: Taking a Break From Here!

If you’re losing your peace here then no reason not to take a break. It’s not worth it. 

 

I wouldn’t try to talk anyone out of it though because who am I to say they don’t need a sabbatical. 

 

Be well.

Thank you for letting us know, it's just a break.  I'll see you when you are ready to return.  

 

Some people don't understand that letting us know is a kindness.   Let the stress out and when you are ready, please come back and share you with us.  Heart

Re: Taking a Break From Here!

I never could understand why so many posters have to "announce" that they are leaving, blah, blah, blah!  IMO, it is for others to "beg" them not to leave, and get attention!  If you are leaving, just leave!Smiley Happy
