If you've taken breaks from social media,

I quit Facebook and I just deactivated my account.

I didn't like, make a thing about it.

I hate when people make a to do about it but I think that's because the people who typically do it are AWs anyways.

I just stepped away, and made no mention of it.  I am not good stepping away, so I pretty much stopped posting, but would still check things out from time to time.  lol

My cousin deactivates all the time and makes a big giant show of it. Daily countdowns, vague reasons why (It's taking up too much of my time, it's hurting my opinion of loved ones, etc etc), then she finally deactivates and comes back a few months later. And repeat.

It's annoying, but there's a better way to do it than hers.

I just PMd people I wanted to talk to to get numbers and just deactivated FB. I was also off Pinterest, GBCN, and instagram

Do it without making a to-do. I hate when people do that. It always feels like they want people to beg them to stay.

I just drop off the planet occasionally. Sometimes for a few weeks, sometimes for a few months. I've had my account for years and have made a grand total of three statuses, so no one notices. I only keep it so I can see some of my friends' photos.

I generally think friends that make a grand exit are AWs. I wouldn't have noticed if they silently took a break.

I always assume people who post goodbye messages are seeking attention. I would just quit posting.

I gave it up for Lent (flame away) and made a post. Mostly b/c I have relatives that freak out if I don't respond to their message/posts within a hot second.
