Hi! Do any of the scarleteen staff/volunteers ever encounter a user and interact with them by asking a question, and you guys never get a reply back? Do you all ever wonder "what happened to them?" "are they okay?" ? Sorry this is such a random question, I've been thinking about it since a similar situation happened to me where one day my online friend just never replied or texted me back

Hi naurmi008,

I can't speak for everyone here, but I know several of us, myself included, do have users we wonder about from time to time, especially if they were a frequent user or someone we had a long interaction with. But we also know that the nature of the internet, and of life, means plenty of people will never really wrap up their interactions here, and that that's okay.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
