I usually have my profile locked these days and have done for a long long time. I am not interested in meeting guys from the Internet unless I have got to know them a bit better through the forums. It's all too much effort for me. I take a break because I am bored. I have never closed my account though.

I closed my account once many moons ago and then missed the people in Chat too much so opened this account! You will find that my profile is locked alot of the times too! At the moment I am just here for Chat and the Forums as I enjoy conversing with people and would miss alot of the Posters too much to leave again! xFunlovingx

Can't be just the forums surely? Is it disallusionment ( is that even a word?) with the whole RHP experience?My two bobs worth is..If people leave "forums".. why not just stop posting for a bit and just read? Close off your profile if that makes you feel better but to leave all together I find that confusing. If putting yourself out there feels a bit too raw then just don't bother going in this part of RHP for a bit .I can understand the whole getting over endless messages or underwhelming meetups but that would happen with all dating websites. A need to go out and get "back into the real world" yaya!Never felt the need to "leave" RHP but I have gone thru phases of just reading but then again I'm not a prolific poster either.

Ive taken a break and Ive also closed an account. I did it because I got bored with the forums, the lack of respect many poeple show others (either on the forums or through messages), and because I had my hands full with life away from here. Whats drawn me back? Free time was one (once all those pressures have left me) and to create a new profile? Well, thats a little complicated but someone asked me to come back for a specific purpose.

The real world does tend to encroach on the RHP experience from time to time. Work, work and more damm work... but always lurking in the back of one's mind is the RHP forum, the sexy women, the innoocent and no so innocent questions, the self postulation, the soap boxing, the self assertion, the humour, the innuendo, the dictation of morality unto others, the sexy banter and of course the cryptic, acidic comments. And all in the one convienient location! Have had a wee small break myself and my naughty cup now runeth over! So....time to have a peek to see what everone's been up to!

Had enough for now, not that I posted much in the way of topics, more so in replies to topics. Busy enough with life.

Hi Op Interesting post My question is, who here has taken a break only to return again? Yep Ive been on and off here as both part of a couple and as a single..and as you can see, back again....sigh. What prompted you to take a break? I had a run for approx 18 months..then I found that my head and heart was in a bad place and when one is like that (for whatever reason) its time to walk away - regroup, refocus and embrace...so thats what I did...ditched the old me and hibernated for a while... However I wouldnt close my profile down - if I felt the need to leave again....just you know go into hiding and lurk in the background for a while......do you think that all the people that have left recently arent still reading ? - one doesnt have to log in you know !!! What drew you back? Simple ..I was bored - long period in hospital immobilised and anything to pass the time..... and thought ..ah what the hell...and so glad I did come back ...I reconnected and have connected with some absolutely gorgeous people who Im proud to call friends and not all appear on my frineds list either....and in the coming months I will be meeting more people from here in RL (happy dance) so yeah..for me all is good .......and there is still some great observations and postings going and and Im still learning..and at times questioning... If a topic doenst appeal or IMHO a subject as gone way off track and deteriorates, I simply just turn of fthe laptop and walk (hobble) away ........I do have a life off here..............and Im living it accordingly OP Im sorry to hear that you feel the need for a break - however Im pretty sure we have all been there..do what you need to do for you.. (but perhaps put your profile on invisible ?) Stay in touch either way :) .

I closed my account and left for a few months. Partly disillusion with the rudeness of people and in part forum attacks at the time but mainly because of external life issues I was facing. If these are negative they can and do spill over into the forums and it is really not fair on other members. The siren song of the forums drew me back as well as being in a totally different head space this time round- Posted from rhpmobile

This little pupa is also taking a breather. Much to ponder and assimilate. The creature that emerges will most assuredly flex it's sexual wings and take flight in a different direction. To those that matter, we have our ways of communication open ;) Nat x

was my longest. Just didn't log in. Why I took the break...focus more on life and not just fucking. I found it became addictive and not so healthy for my well being.Why I came back....catch up with friends, have a crack at these bloody forums and to meet new like minded people. I have noticed though there are a myriad of younger people on here now....25 - 35 age bracket so it has changed the dynamics some what. FUK! I wish some of the oldies would return......Stalky?!

Hi! KarynB. Thanks for tour Topic:) I've taken a couple of breaks in the last few minths lasting about 2weeks each Mainly for me things happening in my Life which needs my attention .I also think lately it's a sensible thing to do from time to time so we don't caught up in the Fantasy of Online Dating and stay grounded..Right now I'm replying to a couple of Forums but not as involved as before I'm just going with the flow..

Most recently had a few months off because:1. It got a bit nasty in here (and to me that's boring), and 2. Other things got in the way (like a regular home life).Never considered cutting off the profile though, just didn't log in, or when I did it was to lurk for a bit.While I quite enjoy the forums I only really have time to be a regular when travelling. It's 3:30am in Sydney now but I've just had dinner in another boring hotel. Sorry, you cant keep me away at the moment.Mr C

I've been here, probably close on 7 or so years. I take breaks from time to time. Never really actively seeking anyone on here, but mainly just to read the forums. Over the years I've seen a lot of ppl come and go. Lot of ''regulars'' come and go and come back under different user names. Seems to be a common thing to after a few months / years change their user names and think others don't realize it's them. ( is kinda funny to watch) Usually when I take a break from the place, it's because there's nothing new in the forums, just the same old topics recycled. Yes, I get there's new ppl here all the time, but as you would imagine in 7 years, I've seen most topics. Why do I come back after taking a break... pretty simply really. The forums. After a short break, there's usually some changes in the dynamics of this place. New ppl trying to make their name, get noticed etc etc etc, and it's always funny to watch some of the cat fights start up.

I left for about a year when I was in a sort of complicated relationship. I didn't need to look for a new partner and I do have to say that was the primary reason I joined at that time. Well, unattached again but these days I tend to post and read in the forums so I might still visit often. As it is, I find I can't spend too much time here as life intrudes. Besides, as wowwow mentioned, same shit different day. I tend to read one or two posts maximum, mostly those that are posted by people on my friend list. I wouldn't call them friends as I have not met them in real life.

Meh, I got a bit bored with it all and it was taking up way too much of my time. I needed a break to re-establish priorities.

I am opting out of paid membership - tired of the flirts from guest guys who dont meet my profile. Just cause they dont want to pay a membership. And the forums have become a bit too boring with the forum police correcting everything. I will stay a guest for a while..... - Posted from rhpmobile

Every now and then I start to lose interest specially when some get a lil too high and mighty and start believing their own publicity. This tends to make some subjects dead boring. In recent weeks I backed off quite abit because of this.Anyway' from Friday' Im away for the next 2 1/2 weeks on a business trip to Thailand, so thats 2 1/2 weeks away from here... The only thing I regret is Im going to miss Sexpo where I was looking forward to meeting up with some new and existing friends.. Jay

Probably like others I receive friend requests then when you try to make contact via flirts or messages you receive back nothing, even after you can see that they have read your flirt or message they continue not to respond. Now that gets my goat a tad! Are they there to just "friend collect"?

we took a break so we could deal with a couple of health issues, and the passing of someone dear...for a while there it seemed we spent more time at hospitals/clinics than anywhere else.... we returned because things began to look brighter, and we were finding peace with the loss, and a return to good health thru physio and loving care.... we are less active these days....things have changed a little....( no..a lot)....and our priorities are back on each other, the 'play' is now something we take much more time to arrange, and we find we are much more particular about who its with than ever before...
