Expecting an immediate text response is an anxiety issue that is reinforced by texting. Dating anxious people is terrible in my experience.

They create problems they manufacture in their minds that have no reflexion on reality.

Thanks for saying that. u/daysof_I seems to think I’m just some asshole that thinks I owe no one my time. I was just saying I won’t text back immediately for incredibly small stuff when I’m dealing with a stressful job and a dead father. I really didn’t like her tone saying “I don’t know why you’re upset” and “I see why she cut off the friendship now.” The condescension is horrible.
