pubwrite08: yes soon, but it is because this place that is called Connecting Singles... have connected two more singles. And I am going out with a bang. Well maybe I should've picked another word?
Pub, you can still stay even though you have found someone. Many do, some who even married from meeting on this site. Many are here for the forums only.

Polarbutterfly: I left before for personal reasons. And no,it was NOT for attention.
No one leaves for attention. They start a thread for the attention. The OP is asking why they start a thread stating they are leaving? Most are in agreement it is for the attention.

Oh I know, I think I will just be too busy breaking his back and putting back together again to be here. At least for a loooonnng time.
Ashes: Polarbutterfly, I specifically said, this is not a Poll in which I mean to critisize people at all, I am just curious, as I have seen many do this!
misunderstandings happen sometimes also sometimes single parents are surprised at how callous the dating world can be and decide to focus on their kids instead just guessing
I did start a thread for attention, to say goodbye (then) to friends.

Ashes: Hey, no offense at all to anybody, I´m just curious here, and was wondering, why even mention if you leave or not, just do it... But I fully understand that you wanted opinions, very valid!
I agree with you... When I go I'm gone without notice...
Welll... Actually... I don't know if I had a valid reason for wanting to read the replies though... Or did I???
I took a leave of absence from this place, because i was doing a job for a couple of weeks where the interweb was not availiable... that and i did need to take a break from here too... although i did say i would be back.
I posted a thread just as an advisory to the wonderful friends i have made on here to let them know what was happening, it means i dont have to email them one by one that would take forever and im too lazy to do that....

As previously stated, there are ALWAYS exceptions.....
The ones that confuse me are the ones who start a thread, say they are leaving and then never go. It's like they are looking for people to convince them to stay - that, in my mind is attention seeking.

Good for you! That´s exactly what I mean, if you leave for awhile, and let your friends know, fantastic, but Posting Threads or Polls threataning to leave for one reason or another is total rubbish to me!

Gosh, Thank You, I think somebody got my point straight!!!!!!
When I joined the forums in February I was attacked and bashed pretty quickly by two certain people. I was hurt and truthfully couldn't take it so I left but didn't do a thread that I was leaving. After about a month I came back under a different name because I missed the communication between posters. This time I was prepared for how people express themselves and chose to ignore it. If I left again, I wouldn't do a thread about it unless it was for a temporary leave such as illness. When I do threads it is to encourage conversation and opinions between people. I don't write about the misery of my life unless it helps someone else to tell of my experiences.

That, or because I've found a good, solid love and my life is moving on in positive directions that leave me no time to remain on here, would be the two reasons that I would post such a thread.
I agree that those who do so to have others beg them to stay are just seeking attention. And I never beg anyone to stay. I wish them luck, and say good-bye.
