Based on the tone of this response, your attitude might be the reason people stopped reaching out. Empathy is important, and this article clearly outlines the many ways that life and mental health issues can create obstacles to connection that have nothing to do with a lack of affection. Your response strikes me as ableist. Until you’ve struggled with any of these factors, you might not understand how it’s possible to lose touch even with the best of intentions.
