I always find that people seem to be really bothered if they think they have upset someone else or that someone else is avoiding them, but no one seems to care or bat an eyelid if I drop off their radar or distance myself. It really upsets me.
I distanced myself from a friend a few months ago as she kept telling my DCs off when we met up and was also quite critical about my DD in comparison to her DD, eg she kept referring to my DD as overweight, when DD is not overweight it is just that my friend's DD is a very tiny slight build. Like I said, I distanced myself but have always been polite and friendly when I've bumped into her. She doesn't seem bothered at all and has not made any effort to contact me or ask if she's upset me in any way.
Whenever I've distanced myself from anyone in the past, there just seems to be a sense of acceptance that I'm off their radar, and no one is ever bothered. Even when I've backed off for a while and just not initiated contact, no one contacts me.
AIBU to find it upsetting?

To be upset that no one is ever bothered about losing me as a friend?
