Do you feel restless when people don't reply your message?

I'm not sure if it is just me? Or it's a hsp thing but i feel really triggered when someone read my message and don't reply me.

Isn't it just normal manners? Especially so when that is someone that is close to me. I'm really tired dealing with this kind of thing.

I can't simply turn off my brain. How about others? Same experience? It's a mistake to have some expectation from others I guess? Just a simple reply is too difficult? I just don't get it.

Edit: i noticed a few comments talking about my expectation about the other person reply immediately. But i never said that. Just a reply would be good

Hsp's better alone?

I only found out about hsp about 2 years ago. I'm in my 40s now but everything makes sense.

​

But realising my condition doesn't make it better. I suddenly rmbr why I was so emotional about so many things. My father being a manly man is kinda pissed that i cry too easily. Even my sister will ask me why I'm so emotional.

​

Anyways I can't do anything except for trying to hide my emotions. I'm kind of a loner and i can actually live like this but sometimes i do feel that it will be better to have someone. Not necessarily romantically. Just friends would be fine.

​

I only have a few friends that I can call them as my best friends, but turns out I just feel that I'm expecting too much from them? The level of empathy from "normal" people is different i guess.

​

I always feel hurt when i try to get closer to my friends. I actually think that probably its a curse for hsp not being able to have a deeper kind of friendship. I give up the idea of having very close friends.

​

Anyone feels the same?
