![]() The day you run into them is like when your computer finally forces you to upgrade to the latest Adobe Flash Plugin. You and your text messages are like a fly at picnic or a pesky Adobe Update popup, and they have zero interest in hearing from or responding to you. Are you important to a person who takes 8.33% of the year to respond to a text? As the brilliant Angelica Pickles once said, “If you have to ask, you’ll never know.” However long until they unexpectedly run into you and are all like, “Oh, dude, I totally forgot to text you back that one time.” The only feasible explanation they could possibly be throwing your way is the classic “omg I JUST now saw your text!” You don’t “just now see” text messages from people you want to hear from, several weeks after they were received. Take the spare week(s) you’d still have left until you get a response to read the entire book, and by the time they text back you’ll know just how borderline offensive a multiple week response time is. Have it sent via UPS Ground or whatever the slowest shipping option is. ![]() Find a self-help book about only being involved in friendships/relationships in which your presence is valued.

So yeah, conversation with you is the equivalent of a sink full of dirty dishes. This is how long super lazy people avoid doing dishes. If someone in LA who cares about someone in NY could literally drive all the way to see them in the flesh before you can get a text back, that should tell you all you need to know about how remarkably low on their list of priorities you are. It takes 42 hours to drive from Los Angeles to New York. They’re either dropping phone reception or dropping hints, and it’s pretty important to identify the difference. If the person you’re waiting to hear from isn’t some free spirit, hippie type who may’ve been out of cell phone range for the past 24 hours, then you just aren’t a priority. Surely a measly text can be sent sometime before SpongeBob evolves into Friends reruns, right? One Full Day: turns into Nick at Nite, breakfast turns into dinner, and Instagram goes from #RiseAndGrind posts to a bunch of sunset photos. It’s doesn’t mean you’re 100% unimportant, but you’re definitely on the cusp of insignificance.
