Not gonna lie, I vastly prefer that. Not to say I bombard people with entire encyclopedias when messaging, but…I dunno. I guess, maybe this is the result of being one of those “elder millennials” I send text messages with the kind of intentional and to the point messaging style with the brevity of someone who pays $0.50 per message like it’s 1999 and isn’t running across the house to respond to every blip and beep my phone makes.
(Interestingly once I scared off a potential dating partner who is heavily into texting constantly and called me out for my asynchronous messaging habits and I flatly responded “sometimes I just want to put my phone down and do literally anything else”)
