wondering if there's something wrong with my phone like why aren't people replying to my texts are they even getting them knowing full well it's probably just because they don't want to answer
#but also like. hey you asked for volunteers maybe consider deigning to write back when someone accepts ?#anyway this reminded me of something i used to do as a child#i'd see my peers like my classmates and kids my age at summer camp or whatnot getting texts all the time#and i couldnt figure out why i wasnt getting any#so i had a theory that there was a network issue and that it was clogged up somehow#and to unclog it i'd send myself a text and hopefully a barrage of texts would come through#it sounds pathetic but to be fair the network clogging up was an actual thing that happened at least once so i thought that's what happened#but of course i would only get my own text#it was very silly of me i know#oh and this reminds me of another anecdote#one time at home we were talking about how my brother or my sister (i dont recall who exactly) kept getting texts all the time and#and how it irritated my parents and i mentioned how i only got texts from the network provider (which were ads)#and my father was like oh what do you want Me to text you? all mockingly#like i dont know maybe i would have liked that#maybe then we wouldnt be so estranged now#im sorry about ranting like this#i know nobody likes listening about loneliness#but these days it's really getting to me
