"The pressure of being ‘online’ is heavier than the weight of a phone."
Ritika sent a text to her fiancé, Aman: “How’s your day?” The message was seen, but no reply came.
Minutes turned into hours. Her mind went into overdrive— Is he ignoring me? Is something wrong? Did I say something offensive?
Just as she was about to type a dramatic “Forget it!” text, Aman called, breathless from running.
“Sorry, love! Was in a meeting, then got stuck in traffic. Just saw your message.”
Ritika sighed, realizing how much energy she had wasted overthinking.
That day, she made a promise: Not every late reply means something is wrong. Sometimes, people are just living their lives.
Moral: Blue ticks are not emotional indicators. Patience makes relationships healthier.
