Oh , excellent . Hopefully it continues to climb . <| sep |> You ' re in the wrong sub , chief . <| sep |> Wait . Why the downvotes , you ' re right no ? <| sep |> We don ' t . If anything , this has exposed yet another problem with relying on social media as a replacement for in person communication . If you don ' t control the medium , you don ' t fully control the content you contribute . However , while exposing this vulnerability , they either inadvertently or purposely exposed the same vulnerability in every other social media site . You treat this like this is only a negative . Yet this act of sheer stupidity exposed a huge vulnerability in modern online social networking . That ' s a good thing coming out of a bad . <| sep |> It can really fuck with your head to confront the knowledge that your long distance partner is looking at his phone but not responding to the message in which you express your sadness , but your girlfriend ' s acting ridiculous . She needs to start communicating without insults and helping to solve the problem or you guys won ' t last very much longer . I was long distance for the most mentally trying year of my life while my boyfriend was distracted by one of the busiest years of him . For me , I worked hard to understand that my boyfriend was likely not responding to sad texts because he was not in a mental or physical space where he could give me the attention I deserved we also used our kind words to work out that on days that I needed immediate attention I would call and as soon as he saw that he had a missed one from me he would be actively working to find an opportunity to call me back . But none of this is gonna help you if your girlfriend doesn ' t stop looking at fights as a way to vent her anger and make you feel as bad as she does and start looking at fights as a way to help each other to better compatibility and a solved problem for the future .
