I may have accidentally done something like this a few years ago.
I started playing Warframe during a holiday period and met this person in game who I spent the next few weeks playing with, up to 8 hours almost every day. The one day my internet got cut off by a construction mishap and since I didn't have any contact with them outside of the game I couldn't tell them anything. Then a few days before i got internet back I started back at school and didn't have a chance to get in game for a while. The just when that started to die down I had a hard drive issue and had to wipe it and to this day haven't reinstalled Warframe out of a combination of guilt and fear I'll get into it too much again.
