This week I experienced a disappointment in trying to keep in touch with people from my former employer. I am arranging a SABR meeting in early March and thought to invite former colleagues interested in baseball. Only 1 out of 7 invitees answered the email. At least he said that it was nice to hear from me. I am disillusioned that the others did not have the courtesy to at responding to the email even if they are not interested in coming to the meeting. I knew these for many years and now realize that I must put them in the past. Likewise, I sent an email to a SABR member asking if he was interested in holding a baseball trivia meeting at a restaurant. He didn’t respond. I think that out of courtesy he should have responded saying that he just wasn’t interested.
There is nothing I can do but move on and let go of these people.
