The problem with discovering you’re an introvert late in life, is dealing with all the people who remember you as someone who wasn’t.
Is there an easy, gentle way of telling someone that you’ve outgrown them?
I didn’t think so.
I'm sorry A, I really am. But I don't have the bandwidth for this friendship anymore.

Wow ur back! :)
Nope, there isn't. The easiest way is to move continents. Like I did :)
Ai yi yi. Stop agonising and DO it.
J.A.P.
where are the photos u were going to upload?
Coo: I am! I think...well, so far. :)
And hey, so are you. And in mighty good form, might I add!
Sherene: That simple, hunh? Y'know, I'm *so* tempted to give it a try now.
JAP: I did, I did. Eventually. And then felt like a horrible person. But an inexplicably *happier* horrible person.
Anon: Ummm...photos? Give us a bit a bit of a clue, won't you? 'Cos we have no idea what you're talking about.
Nice to read something new here.... have re-read the older posts about ten times :)
Sigh.
Stop writing about me!
glad to see you back on the blog trail... make some bandwidth for other people you've outgrown too will ya! :)
so you should write greeting cards. i'd buy.
You are far too civilized. I am a common barbarian while telling people that they need to scoot out of my life.
Figures why I am so entirely friendless.
Hmmm..
If one's lucky, both people wake up to the 'outgrowing' at the same time. If not, ah well, bad smell.
Blue Sunride:: But...I’ve never seen you here before! So, er, hello! And also, thank you? :)
Phantasmagoria:
Come Ph, let us all be socially dysfunctional together. Over gin, preferably.
Anonymous:
See, I’m always at a bit of a loss when replying to anonymii. But umm, thank you. And about the bandwidth for people I’ve outgrown, err...why would I do that?
Pri:
Oo! Fun idea!
This one would probably say, “Guess who has to find themselves some new friends now??” on the cover, in cheery, happy font, and have a mirror on the inside.
We should do a series!
Scherezade:
Not at all, m’deah! You’re confusing civilisation with complete and utter wussiness. I am the latter. Actually, the queen of the latter. A sheepish, wussy queen of the latter.
Rhyncus:
Goodness heavens! I haven’t seen you in *ages*! How’ve you been??
And yes, the waking up at the same time would be great, but does it ever work that way? I don’t know.
Also, does the knowing make it any easier?
