I DO NOT owe you a text back. If I’m not physically w you, I owe you very little in terms of interaction. I come home, throw my phone under the bed, and ignore till morning, and I prob won’t answer you then either. It’s not personal…usually.
I only text my wife, or instant message people from work.
Everyone else gets a phone call that has a concrete beginning and end. I get anxious having multiple running conversations waiting for a reply.
