I do sometimes. What I mean is when you are talking to somebody and in an instant you remember one thing in mind that you want to do, do you just leave without saying good bye or excuse to the one you are talking too? It happens to me sometimes. I just walk away because I remember something important for me to do. Oh!! that is embarrassing. I would realized that later.
Did you experience the same? or you are very careful not to offend somebody that you just let go the important thing?
Interesting to know if you did too.

Hi Che,
This sounds funny but I did it a number of times and that when i was yet busy working with appointments here and there, friends calling me here and there while I am still talking. Specially when we are preparing for a program, oh my!!! It;s hard to entertain all those people who keep on asking questions.
Those are the days.. now no more. Rest to the maximum level.

Hello Bebs. Yeah, there were also times when I forgot to say Good bye to my friends because of something urgent and I think that my friends could understand me forgetting to say bye.

I don't think I have ever left somebody without saying good-bye or if I have, then I certainly don't remember doing so. Actually, I rarely use the term good-bye as it seems so final. I usually say "talk to you again soon" or something to that effect.

[i]Hi Alexandria,
you're right saying good bye seems like you will never see each other again. Well, I admire you for that. It is just embarrassing that I did it sometimes. Then I would realize how rude am I for doing so. Oh my goodness!! I really felt bad.[/i]

I forget to say "I love you" more than saying goodbye. But I still try to say some salutation when finished talking to people.

I think saying I love you need not to be forgotten. that's comes out straight from the heart, of how you feel but saying bye to person you are talking is a different thing especially if you are busy. There are other people calling you at the other corner while you are talking to somebody, and they seems have more interesting to tell you or you have a very important thing to attend to and you just remember while conversing to someone. Oh my!! I sometimes would leave and run to other appointment without even saying, see you later.

It happened to me a number of times. That is the mind of a busy person. You tend to forget some little things which are also important. Of course it is important to say excuse me or goodbye but what can we do if we really are too loaded that even before we finished talking to someone another work enters our mind and we rush doing it. I always do that but I always go back to the person to say sorry.

yes I agree with you my friend. That's the question, what can we do if in the middle of our conversation there is another one coming that needs our immediate attention? Most often we will leave the person we are talking to unattended without saying excuse me or etc. I have been there many times. It is just embarrassing to think about it now. I feel guilty.
