Parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow
There are no words to convey how much having this blog has impacted me over the last 4 years. Having a place to divulge my most personal thoughts, feelings, and opinions has been life changing for me. I have been so touched by the kindness of strangers in good times and in bad. You’ve inspired me to believe there is an unlimited supply of love in the world. I am grateful for all of this.
It’s a hard decision to make, but I’ve decided that I no longer wish to write here. I haven’t been writing as often as I’d like to in the past few months, and I just don’t feel like I have much to say.
I was always a bit perturbed with other bloggers when they made a big, dramatic exit. So there will be none of that. I’m not going to proclaim that this is the end because I honestly can’t predict that. Maybe I’ll come back, maybe I won’t. It just depends on how things feel.
But for now, at least for the near future, this is where we say goodbye. Thank you for 4 amazing years of support in this journey of self discovery.
Think of me with a great big smile.

Gasp…
Well, I hear you. I am close to this point myself. And, I seem to be the only blogger left from the class of 2004-2005.
See you on Facebook!
Nathan, you should never feel like you have to write something so I understand your wanting to take a break. I’m so glad that you had your blog and that I had the opportunity to meet you through this medium as it was the one of the greatest benefits I’ve received from blogging.
Nathan, you are an amazing human being. I’ve cried with your sorrows and laughed at your humor. I’ve enjoyed your visits to my blog. For what it’s worth; whether it is at this domain or another one keep the fire burning. We all need a place to process, vent and be sarcastic.

THnaks for all the good times, good reads, laughs and cries.
I understand how you feel, and wish you well.

Nathan, thanks for sharing your life. Wishing you the very best for the future. I hope you change your mind and continue to blog. Take care of yourself.
All the best.
Well well now…..color me majorly surprised. I will miss you….but I have this sneaky suspicion that we’ll still be email/Facebook/Twitter/phone/text/voicemail friends. Giant hugs and lots of love.
Hi Nathan,
It is sad to see you go but I certainly understand your reasons. I wish you the very best and much happiness. It has been a pleasure to read your blog and follow you along your journey.
Well, Nathan, I’ve learned all sorts of cool stuff reading your blog, including some really fun naughty things (oh, you SO brought out the Bad Girl in me).
The best part, though, has been your friendship, which I treasure!
Good-Nite “Nathan Exposed”–it’s been an awesome ride!
You have no idea how saddened I am. My twice weekly visits to your blog made me feel like I was connecting with you and your life. I will miss you!
Best of luck!!!

Nooo!! Don’t go!
Funny, I could tell in the last couple of months you were going to wind this down. I’m kind of sad because although we’ve never met, I connected with you on some level. But, real life becomes way more important. I’m sorry life has been tumultuous, I know from my own experience how it can be unsettling. Best to slow down and deal with the ups and downs of life than rushing through them without dealing with the aftermath. Good luck to ya.
All the best, and come back anytime~
I would have commented sooner, but I’ve been too busy weeping to see the keyboard. I’ll miss you sweetie, but understand. Stay in touch or I’ll stalk you!
As usual I’m late to the party. All I will say is best of luck and you know my email if you ever want/need to talk. Take care and stay well (((HUGS)))
Nathan, I only came across your blog a few weeks ago, but I have come to love you as a friend in absentia. I have read so much of your blog one topic at a time and laughed and cried and stopped to ponder. Thank you for sharing. I do hope that you leave your blog up for a bit so that I can finish reading the whole body of work you have produced here. Good luck in all your endeavors and use that beautiful smile to its best advantage. I do hope to get to read something new from time to time, somewhere. May love and peace be with you and joy your mainstay.
