Gigerpimp · Accepted Answer

Yes I find it rude I know a few people who do that and also have there phone setup so they can read most messages in the notifications so they don't have to open it so u don't know they left u on read but just knowing they done it to someone els makes it worse becuse now ur 2nd guessing every message u send them now I do have a few friends who are really busy a lot of times and are bad about getting interrupted and forgetting to respond but are open about it and admitted to it and said hay u may have to remind me sometimes And don't feel like it's a bother like don't feel like ur blowing me up becuse some times thats what it will take basically telling me they want me to blow them up till they answer lol

Yes, someone avoiding responding to me is EXTREMELY irritating!

DJB72 · Answer

Not really. I don't always have time to reply immediately so I'm probably "guilty" of it myself.

But then cell phones didn't exist in the time before when Gen-X was young. We were thrown out at 9am Saturday morning and expected home when the street light came on.

The day my brother died my parents had to find me before we could go to the hospital and identify him. There's good and bad to being instantly locatable.

All things considered, the negative impact of cell phones outweigh the positives massively.

midnightmoon05 · Answer

No. I don’t think like that.
i just call if we are close. Close friends/family are not worth these games…the calls always clear up things. This includes my ex hubby and my daughter…she sometimes gets frastrated with texting daddy… I just told her…dad…I’m calling … or dad call me when you are done with work … he does and she has the biggest smile after talking to daddy.
no need to second guess.

There are a few folks that send the quote "read receipts", they are family members in close friends. I think we've had a few contractors that also had that set up for messaging on their phones. I don't generally get upset about it. It just lets me know that they've seen my message which is the important aspect.

Hannajenky · Answer

Not really. I try not to be so dependent on technology in that way. It just seems petty. I assume they are busy and will text me back when they can. What if they are driving? Got a call from their parents? Are having a tiny emergency or even just checking their mail. I don’t always respond right away to texts and I generally don’t mind when other people are the same what

OddBeMe · Answer

First…I turn that setting off. No one will ever know if I read their text or not, bitches.

Second, only thing that bugs me are spam texters, those who put each sentence into a separate text. We got fucks like that here on gag. I think they think it makes them more right or something.

LaFemmeFatale_1 · Answer

I am not the right person to ask, there are exactly only 4-5 people I answer on time. Everybody else knows my tendency to answer late and thankfully, they still love me… I am very grateful for that.

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

The point of a text is I reply when I get around to it. Just because I read it doesn't mean I have time to reply. What if I read it while driving or in a meeting? If it was important she would have called. If she's impatient she can leave.

Altheavas · Answer

No, I dont think it’s rude, they might be busy, or got other priorities, or maybe the question is a bit sensitive one.
I wouldn’t persist on it. I would just leave the conversation on read as they did, they’ll answer whenever they wish.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

Some men I talk to are like that :D I am somehow used to it. If something is important to me, I will find a way to talk about it sooner or later :D

Account · Answer

I dont mind it anymore. I just make sure to do it back to them when the situation occurs or when I dont feel like responding. Tit for tat as they say.

Jessikaah91 · Answer

Extremely.. it literally takes like 5 seconds to reply to something, even if you're busy.. just text "I'm busy, talk soon.. not that hard.

RHK36 · Answer

If it's something serious or if they do it chronically then yes it would be rude. There's no excuse for bad communication when it's so easy to connect with people nowadays.

Nikki1989 · Answer

I never have that problem because I actually talk to people.

menina · Answer

Yes I do. But I assume that they're busy or that they forgot to reply.

Anpu23 · Answer

No, I just assume they are busy. I'm horrible about replying to messages and assume the same of everyone else.

lightbulb27 · Answer

No. Just send them a smoke signal like old days and forget about text/ so ial

ArrowheadSW · Answer

It is OK. Sometimes they can't reply right away, and intend to get back to you later.

RedInnocent68 · Answer

Not really. I’m old enough to know (and sometimes be one) people who are actually busy and not glued to their phones.

shortster · Answer

I try to respond to every message, but sometimes people send me stuff and it is like, "wtf? How am I supposed to respond to that?" Usually it is a dissertation on crypto.

Sparkie460 · Answer

My daughter and son does that. When we ask them something that they don't want to answer, they ignore the question
