I didn't bother at all if they don't care if that person didn't reply back to me (excpet if there's something important like in school or family problems). But I don't get it why whenever they've receive me a message and I just "seen" it on messenger or texts, they say "WHHYYY DID YOU JUST SEEN IT!!??" or "seenzoned" like it's the end of the world. I mean, come on.

How do you feel whenever you've just got "Seen'd" by someone?

I'm guilty of not replying when I've looked at a message if that's what you mean.
I never really think about it but I hardly ever reply.

It doesn't bother me when it happens to me.

"Hahaha, get seen'd kid!"
Nice vocab OP, next I'm gonna started seeing "pwned" and troll face comics everywhere. I'm pretty sure the term coined is called being left on read, but call it whatever you want it's all cringy social over-analysis anyways.

I couldn't care less if someone leaves me on read since I'm typically busy, and I usually only send instant messages when I have the rare free time here and then.

If she's a girl, she probably has other guys chasing her. No reason to focus specifically on you. That's the downside of being a man.

I didn't get that English. Did they receive a Message from you right when you were sending it and freaked out, that you were there right when they were reading it or did they freak out from having someone catch them in the Act of reading a Message in General?

Depends on the person if I ever feel like texting back. Receiving messages from people I don't want to have much connection with isn't as much of a bother as actually responding. But I get the same from certain people so fair enough.

It's when someone sees/reads your message, but doesn't reply to it.

ot: I ignore people sometimes and do just that. I've had to done to me as well, but depending on the message, I don't give it much mind.

On Facebook messgener and various other messengers the chat tells you if the other person has "seen" your message.
it is very good feature.

why does it matter? do you need attention that bad that you see people who don't respond to your texts as "meanies"? maybe they are at work and can't reply or driving and don't want to send you the text at that moment. i'd say if it happens more than three times with the same person, call them and ask them what's up. if you get no answer just delete their number.

No one dates someone because they lack a quality. For example, no one dates someone because they're not creeps, or because they're not criminals.

I loathe the seen function.

I frequently see messages and take my time to reply. I suppose doing so in a timely manner is polite, but then again I've never been too fond of propriety.

Not all that bothered about getting 'seenzoned'. People may have other things to do.

Uhm, trust people. ^^" If they like you, they will reply. Sometimes, you just got other things to do or you want to enjoy some time alone.

If I don't reply anymore, well... xD they fucked up, but at least I explain myself why I don't keep the contact or say "please stop writing me", simply as that, and THEN I stop talking to someone.

Well for the first and foremost Part: you can have your Time for you yourself without having to look after another one. You are also not getting pestered by thirsty People just because of your Looks and/or Status. Lots of People can do without getting any Attention of that Sort.
Besides, if there's someone liking you when you aren't generally being perceived as attractive, Chances are much greater that that Person likes you for how you are rather than just for how you appear.

Sry, that's nonsense. :/
Attractive people are also loved for the person who they are. Maybe not in every case, but somebody can also just pretend to like an unattractive person for some other shallow traits, except appearance or money.
For example intelligence or talents. It's not a shallow thing to like someone for their mind, but it becomes one, if they want to be with someone to profit from those traits.
Maybe some relationships are also just based on "my parents would like him or her".

I don't deny that, I merely stated that the Chances are greater that if you aren't physically or on the Outside attractive, that someone will get attracted to you because of your inner Values.

Maybe some relationships are also just based on "my parents would like him or her".
If you hint at planned Marriages, a lot of that has to do with the Question of whether or not a Bond to a certain Person will improve the Image and/or social Standing of the Family or not.
Else, I think I've read somewhere that there is a Tendency to choose Partners that are similar to one's own Parents. Maybe having someone where you know where you are is also important, rather than just having someone that goes along well with your Family, though even that is already a Plus-Point on its own.

i don't care if someone seenzones me because no one can seenzone anyone more than me
lots of the time i won't even open the message until days later when i might be in the mood to actually talk to people

talking in messangers or texts seems like a lot of work in comparison to takling face to face or posting on a forum where you don't care if you get a message back for days if ever so i really don't like to talk in text unless it really is the only way, like i'm much more likely to get on skype for an internet or long distance friend than someone who lives int he same city as me

I don't buy the last thing. I hear it all the time, but it sounds like people who are so used to being love they forget the lack. People have to first like how you appear. It's the dominant thing in romantic relationships.

This is some bullshit. If you're talking about whatsapp, disable that shit right now. If you're talking about facebook, spent less time there. Just in general spent less time obsessing over if someone replies to you or not. If they care about you, they will. If they don't, well, you will certainly notice it.. But don't just sit there waiting for a reply, do your own thing instead.
Instead of texting so much meet up with people and spent more time outside and actually TALK to each other.

For example, sometimes my boyfriend replies a bit later to me or sometimes I just see what he wrote and I will reply later. We both have each others back at all times but we are both busy as well. It's no big deal. We are both not too keen on texting (he more so than I am) but we spent a lot of time together and can talk about anything and everything. When we are both at home and not together we don't write that much with each other... I think spending some time apart from each other is also important. Everyone needs to have their own space and you should respect them. Love, above all, is empowering.

(Also, this is a general dating advice: Take care of yourself properly. The most important thing is of course your hygene, the way your dress, the way you smell, the way you carry yourself. Pursue your own passion and do your own thing sometimes. But at the same time I always facepalm when people say "it's all about the looks". I didn't fall in love with my boyfriend on first sight, I came to love him after we were close friends. Of course I love his looks as well;) But to be honest, I started dating him because I thought "he's that kind of person I could spent my future with and have children, he'd be an awesome dad because he is so kind and honest". And till now this is still true. Above anything, I find his character very charming. The more time I spent with him, the more handsome he became to me.)

Well, iPhone has a feature to disable the "seen/read" feature. So if you read the message but didn't reply to it, the other party wouldn't know. Also, you can simply view a message without opening the messaging application at all. So, it doesn't appear as seen/read.

I'm aware not everyone has an iPhone, but I thought it was relevant.

The Appearance is only the Thing that can make other People notice you. Still, there can be plenty of gorgeous Women out there and you wouldn't necessarily try to get into Contact with any of them, if there's nothing that particularly strikes your Attention or you would be somewhat related to them. Appearance alone is not everything.
