[quote=Anonymous]I'm gonna disagree with the premise of your post. A "slow fade" is for folx who don't have the emotional intelligence + empathy to have a conversation about whatever it is they need to slow-fade away from. If you have an otherwise functional relationship (friendship, business dealings, romantic relationship, "mom friend", whatever), and it's naturally aging out of prime space in your friend list, it does so organically. You don't have to "slow fade", you just notice, with gratitude, that Timmy and Tommy don't play together so much anymore, and you move about your day.

A calculated "slow fade" is usually done by cowards in place of having the emotional intelligence and intellectual skill to acknowledge there's a problem and address it. "I don't like how Steve chews, so I'm gonna slow fade" isn't emotionally smart so much as confrontation averse and/or incapable of dealing with one's own discomforts.

Please give an example of how a slow fade is the preferred, emotionally intelligent way of handling anything.[/quote]
