Why do people have such high standards for keeping in touch online?
Like, from what I heard from friends a lot of us go through periods where we initially ignore people that we dont want to confront just yet. (Could be even just a simple "How are you doing?" at a bad time.) And we enter this constant feedback loop where we feel like shit for not answering messages, but we are now even more afraid to confront the conversation. Could we not try to understand that online communication is fundamentally different from offline communication also because each of us has a different way of using our mobile phones?
