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!

Are Narcissists Born Or Made? - Let's Settle The Debate

There you have it, the nature vs nurture debate is back, only this time I want to focus it on those deviously manipulative personalities we refer to as narcissists. Now, evidently these folks get bad press and rightly so because they are often at the root of plenty of harm, but is it really their fault? Can they really be blamed for their terrifying and perhaps inherent traits, or are they simply just products and in this case victims of their environments? Letā€™s settle this debate once and for all and figure out how and when this disorder becomes apparent. So, are you born a narcissist or is it developed?

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. I couldnā€™t stand feeling so much anger and guilt at the same time. Soothing 30 years of jealousy hasnā€™t been easy, but there are ways to avoid getting to that point. I didnā€™t want jealousy to cut me off from my sister!

Do Narcissists Regret Hurting People?

From their lack of empathy to their scarily manipulative and controlling streak, narcissists arguably display despicable behavior that simply canā€™t be condoned. Once these people get their claws into a victim, they become ruthless and have absolutely no regard for the effects their behavior may have on their mental health. Now, as with many syndromes, nothing is black and white with these types of personality disorders. In fact, there are certainly many inaccurate theories regarding their relationship with remorse regarding their actions, and thatā€™s why Iā€™m here to set the record straight.

Can You Sleep With Someone On The First Date?: Judgement Free Zone

ā€œNever on the first night!ā€ Weā€™ve all heard or uttered this phrase before. But here you are, in front of someone attractive, looks are exchanged, and the temperature rises little by little. This is when the angel and the demon on your shoulders start the debate: Is it better to wait before sleeping with this stranger? Or can you give in to the temptation? You wouldnā€™t want to be thought of as promiscuous, but at the same time, you only live once. Weā€™ll tell you right now how much patience you can or canā€™t have!

I Have A Problem With Authority, Argh!

With all the orders my parents gave me, I thought I was armed for school, but as soon as I was at pre-school, my parents were summoned because I refused to do what the teacher told me. As I grew up, it became increasingly difficult to tell my manager where to get off, summoning my parents was no longer an option, but the intolerance to authority remained. Can we reconcile ourselves with authority, whether it is a silent or uncontrollable difficulty?

Are Narcissists Lonely?

Loneliness is one of societyā€™s biggest enemies, and none of us are exempt from it, not even the most devilish of narcissists out there. In fact, throughout the Coronavirus pandemic, 36% of Americans claimed that they have never felt lonelier, which sets a scary benchmark for the wider population šŸ˜”. Now, lots of us would no doubt immediately assume that narcissists are too independent and strong-willed to feel alone, however, the truth is they are often the biggest victims of loneliness, yet simply have trouble expressing their inner malaise.

6 Reasons Why Narcissists Never Apologize - They Hate Saying Sorry

Iā€™ll be the first to admit that my stubbornness means Iā€™m not exactly the most willing person when it comes to uttering the words ā€˜Iā€™m sorryā€™, but I always push through my pride; although unfortunately, the same canā€™t be said for narcissists... Indeed, people who suffer from this personality disorder will simply never hold their hands up and accept responsibility for their actions, despite how deeply theyā€™ve hurt your feelings. šŸ˜± You know the idiom getting blood from a stone, right? Well, when it comes to apologies from these toxic personalities, nothing is more appropriate, and here are 6 reasons why!

Do Narcissists Play The Victim?

If you have ever had the displeasure of encountering someone with a narcissistic personality disorder, then youā€™ll no doubt already know how manipulative they are. Indeed, these folks despise taking responsibility for their actions and will do whatever it takes to avoid taking the rap for them, including play the victim. Thatā€™s right, these master puppeteers wonā€™t hold back on pulling the strings and changing the narrative so that it suits them. Plus, they know exactly how to turn the waterworks when they want to get people on side.

8 Reasons Why Ghosters Always Come Back šŸ‘»

If youā€™ve ever given online dating a whirl, the chances are youā€™ve been ghosted by someone. Now, for those of you who are unaware of this practice, it involves putting a sudden end to a relationship without offering any form of explanation. If I had to estimate how many times this has happened to me, Iā€™d say there are definitely over 10 guys out there who owe me an explanation as to why they suddenly disappeared off the face of the earthā€¦ However, all the confusion and short-lived heartbreak has taught me that ghosters always seem to reappear at one time or another.

Should You Really Confess Your Feelings?

Who hasnā€™t had a crush in their life? You know, itā€™s when you fall for someone and have feelings for them even though you donā€™t really know them. Iā€™m one of those people who have had lots of crushes, and sometimes Iā€™ve even admitted my feelings. In fact, a recent example was just before I started my relationship with my current partner. I offloaded what I was feeling all of a suddenā€¦ Iā€™ll tell you why I did it and how to go about it.

How To Get Revenge On A Narcissist?

Narcissistic abuse is one of the most horrific challenges anyone can ever go through in life, but thatā€™s not to say that their reign of terror will last forever. Evidently, breaking the cycle of abuse isnā€™t exactly straightforward, however, once the discard phase has been activated and victims realize that they can walk away with their heads held high, the revenge phase can commence šŸ˜ˆ. Unsurprisingly, getting even with a raging egocentric narcissist needs to be carefully planned, but ironically, their self-centered personalities expose to many axes of revenge, which will evidently really get to themā€¦

"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. If this is the case, we often end up coming to the sad conclusion that "nobody likes us! But, why do we think this?
