Why Do I Feel Bad When People Donā€™t Message Me Back?

Friday night rolls around and after a hard week you were expecting to have a drink with a girlfriend, but she seems to have left you hanging on read... To make matters worse (and the humiliation?) you even saw the little typing sign appear, yet you never received a reply. Well, if thatā€™s the case, obviously you or your "how about a drink tonight?" didnā€™t deserve an answer. Letā€™s take a look at why some people don't reply to messages, and why when someone doesn't reply to your text, this makes us feel so bad.

I Never Thought Iā€™d Say This, But I Hate Working From Homeā€¦

Work has always been a synonym of repression for me because it takes up so much of our precious time. Letā€™s be honest, a 9-5 job with a horrendous daily commute often means that work is sadly our sole occupation. So, when the Covid-19 pandemic struck over a year ago, and we were all ordered to stay home, I found it hard to hide my joy in front of my distraught coworkers; although thankfully my acting talents saved me. You can probably already tell, but going into the office every day was nothing less than torture for me. Yet, all these months later, Iā€™ve realized that I despise working from home and would do anything to sit in my uncomfortable office chair once again!

Am I A Narcissist?

My Sister Is Jealous Of Me

ā€œIn any case, youā€™re the favorite.ā€ Iā€™ve heard this phrase coming from my sisterā€™s mouth over and over again. For a long time, her jealousy spoiled our lives, but I only wanted one thing: for us to be close and united. She poured her resentment in my face for many years until it got out of control.

"Nobody Likes Me"

Never invited to parties, never listened to or solicited... It feels like you're just an ordinary person, who is pushed aside and has no value.
