I really hate it when it takes a few text messages to articulate a thought, but my friend responds to the first message without context of the next two messages which would completely change the response, but they clearly have put their phone down somewhere because they must be doing something because now that the thought does need a timely reply because it's in regard to a change of plans which would be better started earlier than later..... they're now not reading their messages and you've trapped yourself in waiting mode hell.

If this was me I'd probably end up stressing about weather to bug them with more messages, just short, asking 'well?' Or just a ? or the emoji version.
Hope you got/get a response in time.

@Soldusty @actuallyautistic In the end it all got worked out, I just got myself worked up over having to wait 45 minutes for an answer.

It's a horrible feeling. Glad things got worked out in the end.

@tkk13909 @spika @actuallyautistic guess that goes to show how few people and apps i deal with then
