What does "Indefinately" mean?

Words are not my thing. I know "Definately", but someone I know has recently said they are having a lot to cope with so won't be online indefinately. 

Does this mean they won't be online again?

Or does it mean something else? 

Words and meanings of words are not my thing and I dare not ask as I don't want to add to this persons stress. Any idea what this means?

Bear in mind that complex words don't work when I try to get my heads round meanings, as often people use more complicated words to explain as I then go round in circles trying to work out the other words as well!

    Indefinite would mean in this case that there's no set date of return, but to presume there won't be one. An indefinite hiatus of a book, for example, does not mean that the author has given up on the book, but doesn't know when they will continue it.
