Well... When I first quit, I stopped getting invited to stuff / knowing what events my social circle was organizing and that was frustrating and I was loosing something valuable.

But since I was an early quitter, things have gotten much better as over the last few years most of the rest of my social circle has followed me off.

In my case this wasn't an issue. While in the past events were used, no one have used them in years in my circle so I even forgot about them.
