JohnnyRotten and Amnesia620, thank you both for your support. I have not yet responded to the contact. I tend to take a while before I act, to ensure I'm giving all angles the respect I believe they deserve.
Ultimately this is all about my decision to 'move away' from this situation. I have trouble understanding why my decision to do so is not being respected. For myself, I do not believe that it is 'unhealthy' to do this. A shame, yes, but nothing ultimately detrimental to my soul. If it is all about choice, why do they feel they need to judge my decision and persue me, as if I am doing myself a great disservice? If anything, I feel their persistance is 'unhealthy'. I guess it's this aspect that make me different?
I realise that in some way, they care. It's not as if I don't, and I am happy for them, I would just appreciate it if they would just carry on with their lives and let me go. We obviously have different perspectives about life and friendships.
