What’s Worse at Work?Being Seen-Zoned or the Legendary Long-Press Technique?

Some people get ignored in love. Me? I get ignored in work chats, which hurts more because at least heartbreak doesn’t slow down the deadlines.

Being seen-zoned is already tragic.
You send a message, they open it, and then… silence. Professionalism is optional for some, I see.

But worse than that is the Long-Press Strategy™ on Messenger. They refuse to open your message so it won’t say “Seen” but you can feel they peeked at it.
They’re out here trying to avoid accountability like it’s a sport.

At this point, I’m not even begging for a thoughtful reply. Just press something. Thumbs up. OK. A typo. An emoji that doesn’t make sense. Show signs of life.

Honestly, romance red flags can’t compete with workplace ghosting. At least dating apps prepare you for it. Corporate ghosting hits on a spiritual level.

Or simply say no. It’s free.
