I fully understand anyone wanting the attention of those they admire, but some of you need to remember that they are people too. Making statements that imply your mental stability is based on their acknowledgement of your comments puts undue stress & anxiety on them. Getting 1/

upset when they don't acknowledge you & leaving comments/messages where you try to guilt them into contact is manipulative & unfair. This includes things like "I know you won't respond to this", "I know I'm not important enough for you to respond to", "I know I'm not popular - 2/

/pretty/talented enough for you to respond to", so on & so forth. I get that you want them to like you. I get that you want to call them friends but friends don't put that sort of pressure on each other. Friends don't guilt each other into paying attention to them. Friends - 3/

understand when each other is busy with life. And the more popular the person, the more people do this to them. So it's not JUST you out there demanding their time/attention & attempting to guilt them into reacting/responding. Stop & question why you *need* them to respond - 4/

Question if your words are impacting positively or negatively. Are you adding to their stress? Are you demanding attention (even in a polite way)? Why is a stranger responsible for your happiness? Why would you put that on someone else? Ask yourself this & maybe find a - 5/

therapist to talk to about it. Because that person you admire, unless they are a therapist themselves with ample time, they can't help you. They aren't ignoring you, they are hopefully avoiding people who put undue stress on them, for *their* own mental health. 6/6
