Leave someone high and dry

Imagine having a friend with you. And they're both playing a game together, and it's such a fun and exciting game! But what if you suddenly quit the game without saying anything and run away? Then your friend will feel lonely and confused. Because your friend thought you would stay together.

 

To "leave someone high and dry" means to turn away from others and leave someone alone without help. As if we were playing together and you suddenly quit and ran away. Then your friend will be really disappointed and offended because they thought you would support or help them.

 

Please remember! It's important for friends to be together and help each other. That way you can have more fun and make good memories!
