If you don’t want to put forth the effort…?

[Anonymous]

How would you handle if someone wanted to talk more, etc. and you didn’t want too…? Would you just say you’re busy? Blame it on other things in life? Or simply be honest with the person?

Say I’m busy & hope they get the hint

Be honest and up front that you just don’t want too

I'll say I'm busy the first time - because it's always true.

But if they persist, I'll say: look, texting this much can't be a part of my life. I need lots of downtime.
