I know the feeling very well from the opposite perspective. Thing is, when I write, I don't really feel like I need people to respond to affirm that they care about me personally; most of the time I feel confident that at least some of them--the ones that matter--do care whether or not they say anything. What I really worry about, I think, is that people will find what I'm saying dull or annoying, and will think slightly less of me because I bore them.
