When people are dying, it is not always possible to say goodbye. Sometimes, dying people feel that saying goodbye may add to the burdens of their friends, or they may feel that the act of saying goodbye means accepting their impending death, and for some people that may be very hard to do. Just remember that "goodbye" is a very hard word for some people. The more you care, the harder it is to say and even harder to accept.

Always try to remain positive about the situation. If you feel negative towards the situation speak to a friend!

Sometimes you have to remind yourself that it's okay to miss someone but that you are better without them. That if they can just walk out of your life with no word then you deserve better.

If a person wants to fade out of your life, sometimes the best thing is to just let it happen. Make it clear that you are there should they choose to come back, and let the rest be up to them.

It's difficult to come out of any relationship without closure. Trying to write a letter to them you never send, or just practising saying what you need to say to a close friend. It might help you figure out how you want to react to the person fading out on you.
