    I'm thinking that I've had too much wine and I should definitely not text that person but I kinda want to but also I kinda don't want to. Can someone please take my phone off me?

    you're gonna do it anyhow might as well go all in. make sure you apologize tomorrow though.

    Or you can send a preimptive apology before - then wait like an HR and send it-- what I always do

    i usually just try to vanish for several hours at a time mid conversation then pop up later like nothing happened

    Guys I had some water and a snack and I can see this text is not a good idea. Like there's a part of my brain that's saying "Georgina quit being ridiculous" and it sounds kinda authorative so I think I should listen to it 🤷‍♀️

    Yeah I woulda 100% just texted it

    I have, what's it called, tho?

    Diarrhea of the mind? Something like that.

    What a thing to say.

    it's easy for us guys though. all we gotta do is send a strategically timed "hey" or like a waving emoji or a meme or a song with the ol reliable "hey this reminded me of u" and then not respond for a few days

    Why do guys do this, really?

    I tend to ignore most texts because of crap like this unless it's work/volunteer related.

    I know you didn't ask me but IMO guys get away with it because some girls (read some, not all) are so desperate for attention they allow it to happen and convince themselves it's normal.

    Nah, anyone can answer that actually knows. This is something about texting "etiquette" that both fascinates and vexes me. I'm not texting you to pass time. I'm texting because I want to talk to you and care enough to frustrate myself with tiny phone keyboard that makes me want to throw my phone across the room.

    well whoever cares the least wins.

    and that may be kinda toxic idk, but what good is a relationship without any toxicity. it's like an unseasoned steak, like yeah you'll prob end up eating it but do you even want it

    Relationships with people are weird, man. Beginning to see why I have no friends IRL. :laugh:

    I'm convinced there's this giant book of unwritten rules about maintaining human relationships that I just was never privy to at a younger age and now am just flailing around nearing middle-ish age not knowing what the *kitten* I am doing.

    Books and cats. Those are two things that can always be your friend and never let you down. :heart:

    Also wine.
