Psychology says that people who suddenly disappear from your life after hurting you aren't avoiding conflict - they're avoiding accountability. They know what they did, but facing it would mean admitting they were wrong. And for some people, that's too heavy of a truth to carry. So instead of owning their actions, they vanish. They rewrite the story to protect their ego and twist the truth to make you look like the problem. Because it's easier to play the victim than to take responsibility. Let them go. You don't owe closure to someone who ran from the mess they created. Accountability isn't something you can force — it's something they have to grow into, and most never do.
