Happy with an emogi?

[Themaths]

I work with a group of women, I put a picture onto our whatsapp group (which is 3 of us), and no response not even am emogi. AIBU to be hurt. I would have been happy with a heart 💚

I would just delete the photo and not post personal pics again. Sounds like a lovely photo, but these are work colleagues and seemingly not interested in those sorts of pics. Each member probably relied on another member to 'react' and don't realise that no one actually has and how hurt you feel because of that.

I personally would have reacted, because it's the kind thing to do but obviously not them.

Try to forget about it.

Not everyone has to be overinvested in the celebration of national 'saints'. We don't see the world going celebrating st george's/david's/andrews day, so why make an exception for patrick?
It isn't compulsory to be informed of the minutiae of colleague's lives

Are you this sour in all your interactions?

Are you Irish , are your colleagues Irish? What kind of dressing up was it?

They might have just been busy or whatever don't over think this so much..

But the OP said in a later post that her colleagues post photos of their kids on the group too.

This. The world has gone mad.

🤣🤣🤣
Only on MN could holding an alternative opinion/not thinking you have to be all 'ooh how gorgeous' about other people's kids, be deemed sour!

The etiquette on social media is a minefield. My kids sometimes tell me off because I do an emoji on posts instead of responding with words??? Also I don't respond to every single post or photo as it seems weird. Would you say "that's lovely" to everything if you were looking through an album in real life?

Apparently I should have written a reply to every single photo from my daughters school trip!!!

I'd like to know this too before giving my opinion.

Nothing to do with the children, it was your begrudging remark about the world not going crazy for British patron saints, so ‘why make an exception for St Patrick?’ It suggests you sitting crossly in your garden with a St George’s flag saying ‘Wot, no parade?’

It’s true though, for a lot of Brits who have no Irish connection it is just an excuse to booze, that is obvious from the lack of celebration of other saints where it’s not linked to drink.

You have a very active imagination.

Actually, i don't believe in any religion so celebrating any 'saint' is ridiculous.

Because we are all Irish...
Thanks to everyone for your helpful comments. I felt stupid after posting, so thanks for the good advice.
