A Fond Farewell...

[drlove]

I'm writing this to let you all know that I have decided to make a gracious exit from the world of hobbying I have enjoyed for over fifteen years. I have met an incredible civilian woman and want to see where things go... it looks very promising! Another factor in my decision has also been the impending arrival of new laws governing the industry as a whole. When taken together, I feel this is the right time to step aside. That said, I will be keeping my account open and will continue to check in from time to time. The only difference is I will no longer be an active member in terms of seeing ladies and writing recommendations.

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for the privilege of having been allowed to be a member of this fine caring, compassionate and upstanding community. I am leaving with a treasure trove of experiences and memories which I will always cherish. My decision leaves me with mixed emotions still, as Terb is more than just a community... For me, it's more of an 'extended family' of sorts and I will miss the interaction and banter I have had with all of you, many of whom I consider friends. The future is uncertain by its very nature, and I may decide to return sooner rather than later. But for right now, I feel this is the right decision for me.

Again, from the bottom of my heart - thank you, everyone!

P.S. I will also be posting this message on another board which I am a member of.

We don't know each other but I have enjoyed your postings; most importantly well wishes with your lady friend and may that evolve into something better than you could have imagined. I am sure your friends will miss you very much here as I was just getting to know your personality and will miss it too. m

Oh god, another one. Why do you guys do this? posting publicly and making us all sad?
I feel like I should leave now too. Everyone is growing out of this phase of their lives and im part of the few stuck on Terb and the hobby.

I hope your new found relationship works out well for you drlove. 15 years is a long time to be a member here I'm sure it will be tough to leave at first. I hope to be in your position one day. God bless and take care.

Best of luck.... I am also trying to retire....for the last few months.....
not working so well.....lol

Don't worry friend...they always come back. I tried to do this twice before and always come back. One time I could hold off for 6 months and come back to the girlies. I also asked fred to delete my account 3-4months back and the bugger would not do it. Kind of glad that he did not as terb is becoming like community or some sort of hobby fam...so yeah he'll be back. This place conforts me.

Never understood the reason why people come on here and feel the need to say they are leaving? Someone explain it to me.

Sorry,just don't get it.

You do not need to hobby to visit the board. There are plenty of sub-forums that are entertaining, not to mention pics of hot chicks that I do not need to scour the net for.

All the best Doc.
