other social media. But, even on here, you can't avoid it completely. As I've gotten older, friendships have changed. New ones established, and older ones lost. And, I've learned to cherish the ones I have, because they may be fleeting.
I understand about losing a friend because of circumstances not of your making. I had a good friend for over 30-years. He just quit communicating with me. Dropped all contact. It bothered me then, it bothers me now. But I finally reconciled to it. The friendship was his loss.
