Disregard DB/DR rules for a second: How certain are we that when we detach or break contact (from the other person's perspective) we aren't seen as disgruntled people, who go huff and puff in the corner because we didn't get our way?
Apply this to the context of my situation where she and I will have NO means of bumping into each other or anything like that. By going dark, isn't possible for her to see me as "Well, I guess he really didn't mean what he said about his feelings and such. I was hoping for him to step up and be a romantic/fight for me, but now he's giving me the silent treatment and cold shoulder. Screw him."
