Brady_to_Moss Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 The past few days i have tried to make contact to people about various things. Never got a responce. One girl i was seeing how her summer was going and had a question about the fall and classes. No responce and shes the type of girl that is no more than 2 feet away from her phone. Same thing happened to another one of my friends from school. Or who i thought was my friend. I cant rely on anyone anymore. Its sad. People just dont care and its really getting on my nerves. At least you could say why you didnt contact and not just say anything. A lot of people in this world are terrible people and i am realizing this with each passing day. I feel like i am all by myself. I dont need people in my life if i cant count on them or even have a simple conversation with.. /rant.
EddieN Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 Take a look at my thread in the friendship section. You're not alone. People can be unreliable and just cold sometimes. And while it's hard to believe myself, I think that no matter how social and liked someone seems to be, they still feel alone. A lot of it is maintaining a front of appearing happy, when deep down you're as lonely as anyone.
Els Posted July 25, 2009 Posted July 25, 2009 You're reading too much into this. When you've been in an LDR you will totally realize how screwy text messaging can get. Texts can be not sent at all. Or only sent a few days later. Or the person could be in the middle of something very busy and urgent and only checked it later, by which he/she might have figured you were sleeping/busy etc and forgot to reply the next day (happened to me once in a while with friends, although not to a SO). Or the person might have been in the middle of something and read it, but the next instant something came up, or they weren't in the mood to reply and figured they'd do it later, but when later came they forgot. One-off instances like this don't mean anything unless it's always repeated. You're lucky you're not me. My current research partner keeps her phone in her bag on silent ALL the time. I'd be lucky if I get through to her after calling 10 times. Or if she even replies 60% of my messages. Once I text her and told her I wouldn't be coming in the next day. She didn't reply (as usual), and it's so common for her not to reply I figured she would've gotten it anyway like she usually does. Next day I wake up to several rather agitated messages from her. Hah, serves you right, bitch. Sorry how this turned into a personal rant.

They can't be on your beck and call 24 hrs a day. Sure, they may eventually get back to you - that's normal.

If after that they still don't reply delete their number from your phone.
Mado Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 Agreed with the other responders; sometimes good people flake out. But if after a couple of tries a person isn't giving back, it isn't worth the aggravation.
Talkofthatown919 Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 There are people in this world who could careless about the next person. Some who are all about nothing but themselves. So therefore you shouldn't waste your time around them imo.
