I hate it. No, actually... I absolutely despise it when someone doesn't reply.
It's always annoying and frustrating when someone you want to talk to doesn't write to you, but I also know that I'm awful at being the one initiating contact, and that it's something I have to work on...
But when I actually do, and the person I wrote to, without a warning, stops replying all of a sudden... God, it pisses me off!
If you're busy, have to go, just plainly don't want to talk to me, whatever; fucking say it! Don't leave me for hours, sometimes even days, awaiting a reply that'll never come. I don't care what your reason is; if you don't tell me this before it's too late, I'm just not going to waste my time fighting for your attention as long as it doesn't seem to be a battle I can win.
No mater how much I care for a person, there' simply a limit to, how many times I can go through that. And that limit is not very high. Eventually, I'll get bored, very plainly, and I won't be contacting the person in question again any time soon. Although, of course I will reply if they do contact me. Anything else would make me quite the hypocrite.
But the hard-to-get/whatever-thing? Doesn't work on me. Not at all. More like it has the complete opposite effect on me, really.
If someone seems annoyed, bothered, bored or just in any way uninterested in my attention, I very quickly lose interest in them. I don't need anyone in my life that doesn't appreciate me. I know it sounds cocky and self-centred and yea, it kinda is. It's not that I think I'm that great or interesting a person, not the tiniest bit.
Nonetheless, I would any time spend more time on the, probably few, people who actually desires my attention and company. These are the people I truly enjoy spending time with.To put it simply; if someone doesn't seem to have any interest in me, I quickly lose interest in them. It's just not worth my time.
And vice versa, and probably slightly stranger; the more someone seem to like me, the more I tend to like them. I, basically, instinctively repay interest with interest, attention with attention, compassion with compassion, and so on.
At it's core, it's really pretty simple, although I'm not quite certain if it makes much sense.
Anyway, I really just needed to get that off of my chest.
