The chatting dilemma
Xin: Oh man… I feel so sad.
Me: Why Xin? Didn’t you chat enough with your goddess last night?
Xin: Yea, yeah. But after all that chatting, now we don’t have anything left to talk about. It’s like a blank chat screen, and we’re just waiting for the other to say something. Then she says she has to sleep, and I say “Ok, good night”. And then I quickly log-off.
Me: Xin, I completely understand. This is why I’ve stopped chatting with people.
Xin: Oh man… when she reply quickly to my chat, I’m happy. But when she does not reply immediately, then I start to get sad. I start to think, What is she doing? Why isn’t she replying? Maybe I should call her and ask her.
Me: Yes, Xin. After every chat message, you should call her and tell her you sent her a message, and ask her to reply. Better idea, you should run to her house and bang on the door if she doesn’t reply quickly.
Xin: No man… that’s crazy. Better, I need to find new topics to discuss.
