Hey there, you young’uns! Let me tell you somethin’ about this “left on read” thing I keep hearin’ about. It’s a right mess, I tell ya. Back in my day, we didn’t have all these fancy phones and whatnot. We talked face to face, or we wrote letters. And you know what? You always got an answer, one way or another!
Now, this “left on read meme” thing, it’s when you send a message to someone, and they see it, but they don’t bother answerin’. It’s like they’re ignorin’ you on purpose. It just happened when you use this “messaging apps” and you can see “read receipts”. Rudest thing I ever heard of, I swear.
Why would someone do that? I don’t rightly know. Maybe they’re busy, maybe they’re just plain rude. Or maybe they just don’t like ya. My grandson, he’s always on his phone, and he says it happens all the time. He says it’s a real problem, this bein’ “left on read.”
- Left on read meaning: They saw your message, but they ain’t answerin’.
- It’s like a slap in the face, I tell ya.
- It makes you feel like you ain’t worth their time.
I seen some pictures, they call ’em “memes,” about this “left on read” business. One of ’em had a sad lookin’ fella, and it said, “When you’ve been left on read for 5 hours.” Now, I don’t know about 5 hours, but even 5 minutes is too long to be ignored!
Another one of these “left on read memes” had a picture of a skeleton sittin’ on a bench, and it said somethin’ like, “Me waitin’ for a reply.” That one made me chuckle, but it’s still sad, ain’t it? These young folks are wastin’ away, waitin’ for someone to answer their messages. Why they just can’t call? I don’t know.
My granddaughter, she tried to explain it to me. She said it’s all part of this “datin’” thing. If someone “leaves you on read,” it means they ain’t interested. Now why can’t they just say so? Back in my day, if you weren’t interested in a fella, you just told him straight up. No beatin’ around the bush.
This whole “left on read” thing, it can make you feel real bad. Like you ain’t important, or like you did somethin’ wrong. Some say it’s a sign of disinterest. And it causes a lot of “angst” in young people. I heard it is the “fear of rejection”. That makes me feel sad.
And let me tell ya, it ain’t just young folks either. I heard about some older folks gettin’ “left on read” too. It’s a shame, it really is. No one deserves to be treated like that. But what can we do? I don’t know. If someone has viewed a message but not replied, that is “left on read”. That’s it.
I guess the only thing you can do is try not to let it get to ya. Just move on and find someone who appreciates ya. Someone who will answer your messages and treat you with respect. And if they don’t, well, they ain’t worth your time anyway. Especially when you sent an important message.
But still, it’s a sad state of affairs, this “left on read” business. It’s just another sign of how things are changin’ in this world. And not always for the better, I’m afraid.
These young’uns today, they got it rough. They’re always worried about what other people think of ’em. They’re always comparin’ themselves to others. And this “left on read” thing, it just adds to the pressure.
I remember when I was a young girl, we didn’t have all these worries. We were too busy workin’ on the farm and takin’ care of our families. We didn’t have time to worry about whether someone read our message or not.
But I guess times are different now. And these young folks, they have a whole different set of challenges to deal with. All I can say is, I hope they find a way to navigate this crazy world. And I hope they learn to treat each other with a little more kindness and respect. Even when it comes to answerin’ messages.
And this left on read meme is just a popular thing on the internet. Some people even make some response memes or funny relatable memes about it. I saw them on a place called “Pinterest”.
So, if you ever get “left on read,” just remember, you ain’t alone. It happens to the best of us. Just don’t let it get ya down. And maybe, just maybe, pick up the phone and give that person a call. You might be surprised what happens when you actually talk to someone, instead of just sendin’ messages back and forth.
Well, that’s all I got to say about that. This old lady’s tired of talkin’ about this “left on read” nonsense. I’m gonna go have me a cup of tea and forget all about it. You young’uns take care now, ya hear?
