Leaving "Mylot"

Hello there,
But am not saying that I am gonna leave it now.
Not right away, anyways.
ever since i got to know this site, i have come to love it. it gave a reason to communicate again with people across the globe. through mylot i can talk to a lot of good people here, and it's not a waste to use the internet now, because you get paid for having fun. and i must say, i love it here.
But I am stuck here, while the others can go on just like that, it feels like a Prisoner of your own Hobby. I am thinking of Leaving Mylot someday, just trying to gather my gutts to do it. I never like the real world, but i don't want to stay in this community like a dreamland or something. i need to see the world again. I must.
well, i have but i never stop thinking of Mylot and some who are here. but i wonder if they think of other mylot users when they log out, i don't think so.
besides, none of me seems to be that amusing anymore.
trouble is, once am gone. I may not come back, maybe it's been the answer am looking for...
Why didn't I think of that earlier, bcoz am too happy here..

I have no computer at home for the next few days and I can only behere from work so I am only just seeing this now
Letran can you not be both here abd offline too, dividing yourself up, doing a bit of everything that you enjoy rather than doing only myLot? Surely you can be here less without leaving completely?
MyLot should not rule our life and as bj said, it should be a prison. It is the only social site that I am a member of but uit does not come before offline things. If I am free I am here, if I have other things going on then I am elsewhere.
A break maybe? Don't leave us completely
I know that many of the older Lotters that you remmeber are no longer here but in just the same way, many that I know are no longer posting either - but new ones have joined and there are many that are worth getting to know better.
I hope you will be able to reach a happy balance my friend ![](/Content/images/emotes/hugs.gif)

It wouldn't be the first time that he has pushed himself too far either
I really hope he can pull himself back!

Hi Diana,
You said it right. I know LK loves doing mylot and he can always manage to divide his time. It's just a matter of managing our time and schedule. We are busy with a lot of things and still we go back to mylot everytime we have the chance to but not to the point of leaving our mylot community.
A break will be a good idea too. He might pushed himself too much here. LK, what do you think? Cheer up!

i don't know you as a person, my friend but i seem to like you here because of your flexibilities in every topic being posted by any one. i understand your predicaments somehow. this is a very sensible hobby. i only went back here after few months of dealing with so many things. and now, i am also leaving for i can no longer make extra curricular activities at this moment. but definitely, i will visit here again when the time permits. i really hope to see u here too when i get back. even once a month or seldom is not that bad. good luck with your plans. take care. :)

Everything has to end someday right? That's how it is in this world, real or virtual.
I do have an idea of being a "Prisoner of your own Hobby". Its just like addiction. You may not want to do it anymore but yet you cant. Great thing about hobbies is that you can change it, switch it up, and just go back to it again whenever you feel like it, if you ever feel like it.
Im glad to read that you're happy being here. I can see it from a lot of your posts. However, if you're truly happy then why doubt your presence here in the first place? Why call yourself a "Prisoner" when no one is holding you back? Most of us would be sad to see you gone but we know that life goes on. People do move on to other things. We may not keep you here but at least we would let you know that you still have something to come back to here if in case you wanted to.
You really should see the outside world more. Try to find a balance between real life and online life. Keep things in moderation as the saying goes.
I have to say that I do think of myLot and the friends that I have made here. I think of their welfare, their troubles, their triumphs, and their current situation. All I can do is wonder since I dont have any other communication with most of them other than myLot. I have to make do with their discussion posts to read about how they were doing.
Well, whatever you decide, wherever you're happy, this "dreamland" will always be here, along with the rest of us. Take care, my friend.

Yeah, I havent been able to post that much here. I sometimes manage to type in a few posts but I do read discussion in my inbox so Im up to date with most people here. I see that you've been quite active in voicing out your political stand and opinions.
Great to hear that you've achieved your short term goals for myLot. It is a peaceful place here. We can all just unwind and relax.^_^
Have a great Sunday and Happy Father's day to your Dad.^_^

hello Letran,
It's so sad to think that you are planning to leave.
i don't see mylot as dreamland.
I like this site compared to other social sites.
I found mylotters as real people,same like the ones i am dealing in my daily real life.
But,if you feel like you are losing your true and real identity(life) then,what can we do.
I hope you will get thru whatever feeling/emotions you are dealing with right now.
Have a good weekend ahead my friend/brother![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)

Hi LetranKnight!
We may not have known each other personally. But I went to your profile several times because of the songs you had them on which made me feel relaxed. Thought that was a wonderful choice of songs that would make feel the way I had. And have enjoyed reading what you have written although I may not have responded that much. It's sad if you leave. Hope you would reconsider. But if you have really decided to I would have to respect your decision and hope you would come back.

hi letran please do not leave, just take some breather, You have been doing a lot of mylotting and need to get out , maybe take some walks
and enjoy the real world then come back to us too.I too get to feeling
like I am my own prisoner so I got to some activity that they have here then come back and am refreshed. I must stay here as my earnings go
to pay my internet bill. Hey look think of it this way,you take some time
off and have fun, then later come back and you have the makings of some discussions from all the stuff you have done off the net. because I am retired and have oodles of time and tiny amounts of money I do think of all of you mylotter friends when I sign off. I would miss your great
discussions and your great way of expressing yourself so dontreally
leave us permanently just take a break for awhile

Hello Mika
,
Yeah, but when am i gonna try that if am always using this site, i get conscious of it every day. and then if am back to work, then i would never have the strength to be active in his site.
but still i want to work again, staying here won't help. besides, NO ONE's helping me into blogging and earning into the blogs, while some brags about how they earn two hundred to three hundred $$$ blah blah blah, am sick of it.
thanks for your never ending comfort. ![](/Content/images/emotes/blush.gif)

I sincerely hope you don’t leave. You may be right in saying that you need a break because we all do from time to time but what would stop you from coming back? I took a break ages ago and I was gone for a while because I was not inspired to be here anymore so I took some ‘leave’ but did not delete my account because a little ‘voice’ was telling me I would be back; I haven’t left again since. I think this place can be addictive and sometimes we need to remember that there is an offline world so a bit of balance between the two may be all you need.

Yo, man.
You are right, every now and then one can feel is time for some changes.
Yet, .. never say never. The real world is a mess, is wrong, unfair and harsh. you will need time to time a shelter. Prefferable warm and familiar one. Something you know about and then can feel comfortable without to much trouble.
And that can be mylot, as well as any other virtual reality place you want.
And yes, time to time, I hesitate to logout before leave a message to some people here ..

You just need a vacation my friend. You dont have to leave the things that you love. Me, I made up my mind that until this website closes I will never leave. Every now and then we need a breather from our hobbies because no matter how we love something a time will come that we will get bored and tired of it. When this time comes we just need to take a break.
You have inspired a lot of mylotters in your own little way. Dont think of leaving, think of your friends and those whom you have touched and inspire

One should be able to manage their time wisely between the online sites and offline life to be specific mylot...coz they can be so addictive and keep on dragging you no matter what.so the best would be to enjoy this site in the weekends and when you're a bit low than to be here all the time.great day.

I myself have said that I am going to leave this site, and I did for maybe a week. This site is just too addicting. I do know what you mean though, I have had an addiction to a forum site before, and it caused me to always think of it, and often times try to get on the site from my phone. That was years ago though, and now I am happy with just mylot. Though I have thought of mylot before outside of the home, I don't think of it so much anymore, and think I only did when it was new and exciting to me.
I hope you don't leave mylot completely, but take a short hiatus, maybe a week, maybe more. You might find you miss the site more then you think you would, or you might find you don't need the site as much as you thought you should! ![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)

i have thought about of leaving mylot once, when i lost the second job that i had before. i thought i can never get back to mylot when i have no internet connection in this office. and though the boss acquired a connection, internet is not always available for me. but because i love mylot, the people here, the friendship i have built with you, the friends who are always been supporting me with my son. so, i say, no one is leaving, right, ryan?
