Do you have a short shelf life?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) March 9th, 2011

A couple of weeks ago, I was feeling pretty good because I had made some new friends online. I had started meeting these new people a couple of months ago. Then, in the space of a day, they have all gone back to wherever they sprang from on the net.

Just like that!

Do you have experiences where it seems like you have a short shelf life? Others might pick you off the shelf, but the day hits and suddenly you’re tossed into the dumpster. Suddenly you are yesterday’s news.

How does this happen? Do you think you play a big role in making it happen? If so, what is that role?
