My immediate reaction to this: this is a form of sociopathic behavior.
Then, I read the comments and saw that every person who came to the same conclusion is downvoted to hell. So I'm just adding this comment in solidarity with people who possess some sort of emotional intuition / "yikes radar". You're not alone.
- scatters 5y agoHave you considered that your emotional intuition might be wrong? Does your "yikes radar" fire when you see people using mobility or sensory aids to overcome disabilities?
- p_l 5y agoThing is, sociopathic would be if they lacked empathy for other person, not that they automated reminders and notes to regularly connect with other people (at various degrees of acquaintance&friendship). Do we put the same kind "yikes value" on couples that schedule weekly outing to cinema? If no, why not? It's essentially the same base mode of operation, setting up a regular reminder to make time for each other. Or a group of friends. Is it really "more genuine" just because you don't know one of them has 20 overlapping calendar appointments with reminders in order to ensure that the weekly meet works out? And honestly, a lot of those reactions were downvoted to hell because apparently there's quite a lot of us who don't find it easy to "message someone on the toilet" and don't accept pithy, empathy impaired message that if we have issues communicating then we don't care.
