One of the challenging things about this app for me has been forming connections with people and then having them suddenly disappear. Like talking with someone regularly over a period of a couple of months, supporting each other through things; and then one day gone with reason why, no message, no closure. It’s happened to me 3 times now and I’m starting to wonder if the app is worth it as I’m not finding the connections I was hoping for, and when I do, more often than not, they seem to cause more harm than good. And yes I know I can find local connections but unfortunately that’s easier said than done when you live in a rural area, and when you are a professional in your community and have to avoid certain meetings to avoid running into old clients/patients. Feeling stuck I guess.
I’m sorry it is a horrible feeling. I’m pretty sure most that have been on these recovery apps know exactly how you feel. Ghosting sucks. Often it’s about the them, not us. Instead of a loss I try to think of it as a lesson. Its hard but in the long run it’s part of the journey. 
You’ll make more connections.
I agree with you both. I could never understand building a relationship with someone and then they're just gone. Makes me wonder why they bothered to take the time to communicate in the first place. Anyway, feel free to reach out to me should you want to. We might already be on each other's friends list.
Stick around Isabel, there are plenty of good people here just like us.
I’ve had that happen too. It is always rough to lose a connection, But I feel that it is just part of some people’s journey. There are diamonds in the rough(lol) I’ve been on for almost 4 years so feel free to drop a line. Responsibility partners are a good thing.
I understand completely
Hey Izzy, how other people behave tells you about THEM not you! You dodged bullets!! You get to define who you are!! Keep the faith!
Hate that ghosting nonsense but as others have said, it says everything about them, and nothing about you. The right people will remain here. Have a great night.
Hey Brian! I haven’t reached out in a minute sorry. We still gotta talk guitar sometime. Keep rockin Bro🤟
People will gravitate to you, and you to others as well. It’s harder because of the dire situation we all face daily and you just don’t know others situations being long distance sometimes. I dunno. I will communicate with as many like minded people that I can. Rant. Peace all😎
Thanks Courtney, needed to hear this 
you can reach out to me anytime. You got this girl, best is yet to come.
I just downloaded the app and I read this. 
Just looking for people who been through similar experiences and struggles as I have.
Don’t let it discourage you! There will always bad apples I’m learning but I still have connected with lots of people here. Welcome!!
Okay. Yeah I’m sure there are a lot of bots on here just like every other social media platform.
I read your post and was so close to delete the app lol
Oh gosh, don’t delete it! There’s lots of good people here too I promise
Hey Allie I offer my phone number on here to stay connected with people, but they never call...I have a fb page and messenger and Instagram, it's kinda tough when people want "cyber recovery" I guess...I'm a hybrid I need both and still go to a lot of physical present meetings here in California...
Unfortunately that just recovery in general sweetheart
Unfortunately people come and go in our lives. It’s painful. What’s important to me is what I gained from the relationship. How did they make me grow? What lessons did I learn? I keep everyone Ive lost in my prayers.
Fair enough.
