I ran into a buddy from high school on Facebook. We started texting each other, and at first it was every day to catch up. Laughing about the old days, remember that guy, kind of thing
But it ran its course. The problem is, he didn’t take the hint. He still texted me every single ■■■■■■■ day, and he was texting me at one time between 35 and 50 times and it wasn’t even 6 a.m. yet.
I gave it to him straight finally, and told him to lay off the text bombing. You have any idea how ■■■■■■■ annoying it is to have some drooling moron text you 35 freaking times while you’re talking on the phone, or listening to a new mix? Even if I’m doing nothing, it’s still bloody annoying. I have never once read his texts, the only thing I can think of is that he dumps every bloody thought that crosses his mind onto my phone
I’m ready to blow my lid at the guy. I mean, what the ■■■■ is wrong with you? I don’t even talk to my own sister everyday, let alone a burnout from high school
I have a friend who texts constantly. She asks what I’m doing multiple times per day. She asks me what I’m having to eat. And if I say I’m talking to my husband she’ll say about what. It gets exhausting sometimes. I told her not to text me between 10pm and 10 am. She at least follows that now. She’s a caring friend though so I don’t want to stop being friends. I just don’t like reporting to someone all day every day about what I’m doing
@LilyoftheValley that sounds painfully familiar. The difference being that it’s all about him. I could write a text in return, and he clearly doesn’t even read it he just continues spewing whatever BS he’s talking about. He seemed to think I’m his therapist or something. The guy is cooked in the head
@LilyoftheValley I agree, that’s exactly what I want to do. But it gets complicated. He broke his leg at work about a year ago, and employment insurance has been ■■■■■■■ him around ever since.
I lent him some money so at least he could pay his rent he’s paid half of it back but I really need that cash this summer. I know, stupid move
He did fry himself on that Oxycontin ■■■■. But he went through NA and got clean. Now he’s just on methadone every day. I think it’s a case of, the damage is done
Good call. I don’t usually text with people. Text is for sending single questions like, “Are you free?”. If the person doesn’t answer, you just drop it.
