I have been using SH for a year now and am in a quandary as to what to do.
I sometimes feel I am a stage of my life to leave and have a break from SH, but then I have made a lot of friends that I have a laugh with here.
Do others get to a stage whereby you have got out of SH what you came here for in the first place, but then when it feels time to say goodbye it is harder to leave than what you thought it would be?
I really don’t know what to do!
I thought cancelling my subscription might be the best way as temptation to come on here would be gone.
But then to cancel would feel I have deserted what I enjoy about SH the fun times and banter in the chat rooms.
O dear please help!
Should I stay or should I go?
Have others felt like this?
Any suggestion gratefully received!
Thanks Minx

It is up to you want you want to do hun, but I wouldn't cancel, as if you do decide to come back, you will have to pay all over again! Best just to take the odd break from it, and pop back in when you need an SH fix....
I haven't actually had a proper meet yet, though have been to my first social, but really enjoy the banter on here, and have spent many an hour having a giggle..
Errrr, how can we possibly know what is best for you?
Let's face it only you can supply the answer you need. You either want to stay or you want to go. You do whatever YOU think is best.
Minx, at the moment I/we are thinking along the same lines as you. However I think that there's no reason to just cancel really. You enjoy the banter and the forum and there are loads who really enjoy you being here, I for one. What you could do is ask your friendly neighbourhood OP to ban you for a short time. That way you can't access chat or contribute in adding to forum giving yourself time for reflection and to maybe get yourself together with other parts of your life.
It's a suggestion mate but Lost are wishing you don't go.
To me SH and all the other sites i use...are nothing more than that...i could take it all leave it...but its easy for me to say that...i don't have to pay!
Having given this some thought, as a paid member, if I felt the way you do, I'd leave. I'd give myself a cut off date. If I was still missing the site in say, three months, I'd join again. You'll have saved a few quid you can use to treat yourself.
The only disadvantage is the loss of your user name, but there are others.
Good luck with whatever you do :thumbup:
Like Venus68 further up the thread, I first joined about 4 years ago. I stayed 2 and a bit years then after a row with BT got rid of my land line and sadly, with it my internet access.
I recently went back to BT and one of the first things I did when I got the internet up and running was to come back to SH. I couldn't use my old username and password so I joined afresh.
Its a real community. The posts are at once amusing, outrageous, serious, informative, hilarious. I could go on and on. All humanity is here. Wonderful!
A Minxless SH???? :cry:
I'd miss you badly Minxy matey!
I think carry on being a member but just do your other things, I have spells where I go off for a while then return but am lucky as I'm one of 'old' members from pre takeover.
In fact there's Calista on this thread, one of the true original SH greats returned unto the fold!
Goodest of good luck LIAM whatever you decide.. (hey, Lady Is A Minx = LIAM!)
Should I stay or should I go? Stay, if you go there will be trouble getting back, new tag, new this, new that, all that explaining to do when you come back.
As someone said pull all your pics, just put in your profile that you are taking a holiday. Then if you cum back we can have a party.
Thanks for all your responses I have made a few friends here and felt touched by your comments and your advice Thanks.
I am going to take time out but I don't think I will cancel my memembership as I dont want to lose my user ID.
