I try to be consistent with online and physical ways of doing things but onine things are not necessarily realtime. So completely ignoring a text would be like ignoring in real life but it might take days for me to respond. I mean I am talking from a perspective of independent adulthood where you support yourself and others and are constantly just a hairs breathe from dropping the balls that keep that support going. But like in college I tended to have a challenging course load so could see it taking time then to. Honestly if anyone expects a return on communication before the next weekend theyre expectations do not meet reality. I also hate texts (and smartphones) and you will get an email response oftentimes before a text response as I am often in my email but not as often checking texts.
