I often become a tortoise. For years. Friends have always lamented that I am weird.
So here is how it happens. I either go incognito when I am
- Stressed or grappling with something which is taking a lot of mindspace. E.g. If someone is terminally ill, I find it hard to engage on something I might consider trivial.
- I am in deep focus mode (like Cal Newport would say).
The weird bits, is both of these happen at least a few times a month. The rule though is, you can still reach in, by either calling up a few times, or messaging more than once.
This is different from ghosting. This is turtle do.
