      It depends on the group of people, might be a generational thing, but it seems the people around me expect a daily flood of messages and to be replied back to within 15 minutes of whenever they decide to reach out. It feels like being an on-call therapist sort of, at least for me.

        ehh, I think you can set your own expectations with messages. I have friends I know will get back to me quickly, and others that always take ages to respond, you just get used to them
