It hurts more when you can't read it back than when you can't read it back, Because it means that the other person has read your information but chose not to reply, which may mean that the other person is not interested in or disagrees with your topic or view, or they do not want to communicate with you. If you don't read or reply, it means that the other person hasn't read your message, or at least hasn't replied at the moment, which may be because they are busy or haven't replied in time. Therefore, it will make you feel more ignored and unimportant, and make you feel more hurt.
Generally, I can't stand the fact that I have not read back, because during the time when the other party has not read back, I may constantly guess what it means, and then feel uncomfortable in such speculation and anxiety. I haven't read it all the time. I basically don't feel anything if I haven't read it for about an hour or two during my working time. By default, the other person may be in a meeting or busy and haven't seen it. But if I haven't read it for several hours, or this person often hasn't read it for several hours, I won't feel as uncomfortable as if I have read it but haven't read it back, but I may feel that this person may not be working
As a message sender, I have such a mindset, so when someone sends me a message, I will try my best to reply as soon as possible, especially when you only need to return a received or good message, and do not spend energy, which is easy.
If you need to read carefully and give feedback, but are busy with other things, I will reply first and then reply in detail later.
If I don't want to spend energy on replying outside working hours, such as when I take my baby with me or in the middle of the night, I will choose not to read it and then wait until working hours to return. At that time, I will also explain to the other party that I seldom watch my mobile phone when I take my baby or go to bed early at night.
