It looks like you ignored the part you told me about reflecting on yourself.

Don't you think people appreciate not having to wait literally hours or days until they get a response?

People should think more about others instead of being selfish.

This topic is about you - not me. Does it frustrate you that I'm not allowing you to deflect this to me?

Feel bad for me, you fucks

This. It's pretty similar with gay dudes that's why I hardly bother putting any on my contacts. The people that are genuinely very busy for long periods compared to those not caring to talk to you for a minute, are rare. The only person I ever believed that with was a university professor I saw once. Besides his job he was also studying for a law degree so his days were very demanding. I didn't bother him unless I didn't hear him for like a week. Otherwise I'd wait till he had time for me and messaged first. Outside of that I had doctors and businessmen that still messaged back fairly quick. So people usually don't have an excuse. TC seems very clingy and annoying though. If I had put someone on my phone and later realised they like this, I would have taken them off and blanked their ass. Rather than pretending to tolerate them. Done it before.

Of course I seem clingy here because I'm thinking out loud about it.
IRL I'm usually too scared to text anyone in case I might seem clingy or needy to them, unless it's something I need from them or tell them something in particular.

I'm constantly doing mental gymnastics on stuff because I always try to think four steps ahead before I say something to someone and usually it's not a response I was expecting.

It's exhausting to say the least.

No I just don't like your attitude. You should probably do some self-reflection on that.

I should reflect on you not liking my attitude? Okay, I've reflected. I don't care. Lmao

fuckin got'em

No I meant you should reflect on your attitude in general.

It'll probably bite you in the ass one day when you do it to the wrong person at the wrong time.

I seriously hope you're not being this obtuse to others IRL.

Take the girl off your phone. That's what I do if I don't hear anybody for ages without a good reason. Most people are not that busy. In addition to also getting rid of them as mentioned earlier, if it's the other extreme and they're constantly badgering me. Needless to say I don't have many contacts. About 6 or 7, and it could be zero if I felt it was warranted. Being ignored amounts to the same thing as being alone, on top of being insulted. So you could at least take the loneliness with some dignity. Your loneliness should not make you desperate, people sense that and either move away from you or use you.

I must be doing alright since people reply to me when I text them lol

The average man is untextable.

The average woman is blasted with limitless Chad texts.

Yep, I hate opening Grindr and getting my phone blown up by dick pics for the next 6 hrs when I just wanted to chat with someone I have something in common with.

Jesus. The government should issue you another friend so you don't bother regular people.

This is expected from some users here and with a topic like this. I see nothing wrong with this topic but it's probably best to not feed the people who only ever post negative stuff to help themselves feel like they are worth bothering with. If you don't they will just continue to bait you.

I stated why, I wanna get to know people before I sleep with them, not really into the whole sex with strangers stuff. I like dick, but not unsolicited dick pics at random.

I think we're on slightly different pages here. I never had a problem with the hookup stuff. It's the part where on the app itself before you ever meet or you hookup and put them on your contacts, they message you expecting instant responses. Just because I put you on my phone didn't mean we are suddenly close pals. It's even worse if you never seen these guys. Some get hostile even after 5 minutes it's so dumb. Alternatively others give you pretty talk of friendship etc and you never hear from them because they just playing around and have a million other guys in the background. I have no time for either extreme.
