Dictated? Nah. But for better or worse it does can have some impact.

I wouldn't blame LV's departure solely on the Durden thing or the Burt thing. Those factors contributed to his final decision, but he'd been wanting to leave for a while. He'd taken several extensive breaks from the board. He just wasn't enjoying it anymore and decided to break the habit.

So that one evening in Chicago meant nothing to you?
Maybe if you hadn’t left so quickly the next morning without saying goodbye.
