People that text you first but then leave you on read.

[Azami]

So for whatever reason, my cousins have this habit of texting me first as if they want to initiate a conversation. And then when I reply back, they just leave me on read and text me, literally months or years later.

I have 3 cousins who do this and it's so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying. They always text first that says "Hey Jericho, how are you? Where are you?" Or "Where you living?"

Does anyone know someone like this?

Those aren't your cousins, they're the aliens replacing them. They just needed that info for their plan at the time.

Yes, I know a lot of people aliens like this, too.

Maybe they forgot, or just messing up with you

Next time they text leave them waiting, hours, days, weeks

Sounds like me, honestly. What is the expectation, here? I mean, if you ask a return question, it's weird to not answer. But if you just answer the question, I mean, I guess that's that?

Could just be difficulty between introverts and extroverts understanding each other. I have introvert friends and like half or more of our texts are literally one to four messages long. Usually if I see it's read, that's good enough for me.

But I have extrovert friends who text much longer conversations, and it's usually because they keep it going. Which doesn't mean I don't like talking to them, just, I don't have a lot to say, I guess.

I dunno if your cousins are extroverts or introverts, but fwiw, that's how it is with me. That and seven bucks will get you a latte, I guess. Maybe you could try being more active in the conversation.

It's more like the expectation that they want to tell me something or want to have a conversation.

Most of the time whenever someone text me like "How are you?" Or "Hey man, how you doing?" I *assume* that they want to start a conversation. My usual reply is like "I'm doing fine. What's up?" And then we just talk about whatever.

But for my cousins, after I reply, I just get left on read. Which makes me wonder what even was the point of the text.

I forgot to mention this but after I reply back, I notice that they didn't even SEE or READ the message according to instagram/ Facebook messenger which makes me suspicious. Which at this point its more like I'm left in the *dark.*
