Well, if an old pp put up a new ad, then I know it is not a problem of stamps or something happened not good to them. So, I would not write since they stopped communication and leave it at that.

How would I feel, guess I would be glad they are trying to find someone to write, and atleast I did not upset them enough to not want to open up to others for whatever reason, they are looking for new outside pp's.

Peanut, I wish I were that Zen !!!!

I really like "atleast I did not upset them enough to not want to open up to others"

Good point !

Since writing is an adventure n honest sharing, this has happened to me a lot, so I justify it by telling myself "I am not for everyone" as people's expectations of friendship change.

I do not make contact again, I move on to those that need my type of writing more!

You might write and ask, just see what he says, if he replies. This happened to me once, and I wrote him again, just saying hi, and asking if I had done/said something to make him stop writing. About 2 months later he finally wrote me back, and basically told me that he was looking for a girlfriend who would "love me totally, and not want to be "just friends" with me". I had to give the dude credit, at least he was honest with me.
