You must use SW as it suits your lifestyle @ProudMom46. I hope you manage to find understanding folk to chat to who share your own values.

It’s not a problem!
Some people expect you to respond immediately!
I have had people block me because I didn’t reply immediately
It’s their loss
You have your life to live and can’t be on here 24/7

Haha your technology skills

I tell my night job that I don't use e-mail or cellphones. If they want to have communications with me. Its face to face or not at all.

I seeked out this company because they use still paper applications and have Amish/Mennonite working there.

I love being a pain in the ass, being stubborn and I just love the way it used to be

Completely understandable.

Asynchronous communication (you send me something; I respond when I see it; you respond when you see my response) is actually what one ought to expect, with users flung across the world.

We all have lives to lead .. you should never need to apologize for that.

All good.

I don't think we've ever spoken...?

you don't owe anybody your time - in real life or online

if they don't understand that..they probably aren't worth talking to

I sometimes take a while too! Lol I’m not on all the time. Lol

It's a way of keeping in touch..

Lol…… “people who are offended” would be an easy way to screen out those I have no desire to see in my PMs- or anywhere else.

very thoughtful. thank you

Good morning you ✌

My own opinion is that somebody's going to be offended by somebody not answering them right away they might need to get a life.

The rare occasion I get a new PM on here:
Then it’s like:

None of us is that important. People can and will get over it.

the women do get flooded with them. guys need quit scaring the ladies off
