Ever since smartphones exploded the expectation to respond IMMEDIATELY is out of control. Anyone who gets my number I warn them they’ll be left on read for days if not weeks at a time. If it’s important I’ll respond but otherwise it’s whenever I get time to decompress and respond. I’ve got a buddy who I love we respond to each other every other week mostly. We will even have calls in between. People really get entitled to others time and it’s insane.
I know someone’s gonna say it but no the entitlement wasn’t even remotely as bad with the older phones. Smartphones began putting pressure to respond because it was easier and then they introduced the “seen” option followed by the “typing” option.
