Left a WhatsApp group and now my anxiety is high

I know this sounds utterly ridiculous, I was in a WhatsApp group after meeting a group of mums two years ago. I only see/speak to one of them and that’s rare anyway.
I haven’t spoke to personally or seen the others in person for over a year, and when I reply or post in the group no one acknowledges or responds to me which makes me feel rubbish so I was feeling a bit like what’s the point so just left.
now I’m worried I was rude. Is that rude?

It’s not rude to leave a group if you’re never active in it anyway, but even if someone in the group thought it was if it’s not someone you ever see or speak to anyway who cares?

Nope definitely not rude they're rude by ignoring you

Don't worry about it. I left a WhatsApp group in September last year of school friends, just said I was having a break from social media/WhatsApp. They very rarely made any effort and a lot of messages went ignored, I very rarely saw them so I just wasn't getting anything out of it. Do what's best for you.

This has happened to me a few times. I’ve now put my settings so I can’t be added to a group so easily.
You did the right thing. I hate WhatsApp groups!!!

Pretty sure WhatsApp now only alerts the group admin if someone has left the group. None of the other members will get a message to say you've left.

Oh that's good! Before when it announced JANE HAS LEFT THE GROUP it felt far more dramatic than necessary!
