I sometimes receive a lot of email for work related reasons. I have colleagues distributed all over the world and email is our favorite communication medium for coordinating activities. So one would get dozens of emails a day from each colleague.
The continual email arrival together with my own obsession checking and refreshing is very disruptive for my work rhythm. At some point it becomes annoying and you wish they would leave you alone.
And then they leave you alone. Once the task is arranged and scheduled, the relentless flow of emails stops. In vain I refresh the email server to find nothing but newsletters and announcements. That is when the feeling of abandonment invades you. You feel they do not care about you any more. It does not matter that you know they were all merely work related questions. You are not on their mind. Who are they emailing now? You have been left. You are not loved by email love.
