I’m struggling to think of a scenario when I would send 3-4 texts to someone without reply.The thing that does annoy me quite a bit though is when I send maybe three or four texts, and the person only replies to the last one. It’s almost as if they didn’t even read the ones above.
I don’t send many. Outside of work maybe 2-3 people.
But if I was texting someone I’d not send a second text unless they answered the first as a general rule.
But I’d say the same for phone calls. If I called someone 2-3 times without a reply I’d sort of get the hint.
If I called somebody I’d not call back for a few days, but probably not call at all until they called me back.
Missed calls or voicemails (well I have one friend who doesn’t have voicemail, but that’s a different story) show up on your phone. If people don’t call me back I don’t worry about it.
That said my contacts again out of work would look like
Mum (hasn’t called me in years)
Dad (speak every few days, mix between who calls who)
A couple of friends.
If I’m at work I call Mrs AFB every lunchtime and when I leave.
I have text messages with one other friend. That’s about it.
I guess I don’t need or want all that many people in my life.
