I think it’s really excessive how ppl expect that bc u have ur phone with u that u are available to communicate at all times tbh I don’t respond to ppls messages ALL THE TIME and not bc I fell asleep or am out of service or have a good excuse even but bc I just don’t want to be accessible or in a conversation, all the time, always

Nobody before the cell phone was available to communicate at every second of the day and I expect to be able to draw a boundary and respond to my friends when i can be fully present in interacting with them

People should be allowed to respond to you when it is comfortable for them to do so
