[QUOTE="Yennora, post: 74139576, member: 394012"] Have you ever got bothered that messages from people can pile up requiring you to throw your personal life away and keep replying to each message? I find socializing to be a huge bottleneck for me. The 3 hours I can spend chatting with someone I can spend reading a book or pursuing a hobby or doing something that will effectively add to my success on the long run. Yet, it is not one person that one has to reply to :( I wonder how extraverts manage their tens of contacts actually. I sometimes long to the idea that in the previous centuries people didn't have the annoying "Seen", "Delivered" and "Read" receipts that even make people much more bothered and "hurt" because you didn't reply in time. Back in those old centuries social interactions seemed to be more relaxing and human friendly. I hate the rush we have to go through now. However, I won't deny that the same digital communication platforms brought a lot of good. I just don't like the social invasion one has to deal with. Why cannot I just reply to whatever I want whenever I want? And read whatever I want to read? If I ignore others messages on digital communication platforms for days just to care for my life? (caring for my life includes caring for those I invested in and want to invest in as "exceptionally close") I put this thread in The Kitchen Sink because I'm interested in the feedback of my fellow non-Christians as well :) [/QUOTE]
