Do you feel offended if someone doesn’t reply to your text message?

ehhe beh it depends from the communication in text message and the person receive it so in many cases if i had no responses from some people it is ok the same may be from other it would be not very nice..

I guess it would depend on the urgency of the mesage and the person I was sedning the message to.I would feel offended if I sent the message and was awaiting and answer urgently and the person deliberately ignored the message after a very long time.The offence would be extremely great if it was to a lover who ignored it because you had a fight

hi paula, I do text few persons but they are very close to me . I dont usually do much texting these days as i feel it is always better to talk than to text so i can get my reply at same time but if i have to joke or something to send then i text. Usually i dont get replies soon so it is ok but if i dont get reply after many texts and over few days then i feel i m being given cold shoulder treatment and i feel offended. I usually try to answer all the text by friends when i get either by texting back or by giving a call. I dont reply to commmercial texts.

hi. sometimes i dont answer text messages especially if they are forwarded msgs. but if the text is asking for something or need to be answered, i always make it a point to answer them. and yes, i do get offended and sometimes irritated if i text somebody and ask for something and he/she doesnt reply because i dont do that.

Hi Paula, I wouldnt say that I get offended if someone doesnt reply to my text but I guess it can be considered rude but you ahve to take it from the others persons point of view. maybe they were busy at the time and it slipped their mind or maybe they didnt even recieve the text. That has happened to me before. I use to have a boyfriend that would littearaly freak if I took longer than like 5 minutes to reply to his text. He would constantly test again and again like where are you or something and it was like Im in school and I cant be texting every second you know. I got so annoyed by it.

Yes, I do feel offended. It doesn't take much effort to reply to a text message, and I'm sick of hearing the "I was too busy" excuse because no one is so busy 24hours / 7 days a week that they can't reply to a simple msg. And even if they are so busy, they could easily reply back at least the next day or few days later, but when that doesn't happen, that's when it becomes annoying. I have sent text messages just to keep in touch with a former colleague and he just ignored my text many times. Very rarely he would reply. There were also times when I have sent texts notifying him of job vacancies to which he doesn't even have the courtesy to reply back with a simple word of thanks. That really annoys the crap out of me. Not that I'm snding the text to get a thanks, but it is common decency to send a response back to some one who has gone to the effort of sending u a text.

My texts are always related to my business.Either to my partner or to the candidates I am dealing with as I am running a placement agency.So I never worry if i o not get a response for my texts.It clearly shows the lack of interest and the attitude of the candidates and it helps me to eliminate from my list to save future trouble.

That's really sweet of you. It indeed feels good. A simple Thank you works amazing and even though I try to do that all the time, I cannot. I must actually make it a point to acknowledge the text message as I do for emails. Thanks.

Hi there paula27661, I just sms my friend and she never reply. I send her 6 sms already about mylot and how she abandoned her account. I can predicted this cause she just too childish to bear all my fact truth accusation. She been playing at me all these years...

I normally give me response to the sender by conveying my thanks or else I send him/her a return message to acknowledge to let him/her know that I've appreciated his/her message. I love sending SMSs and as and when I receive some lovely ones, I forward it to my near and dear ones, of course with slight modification. I find it is a great fun to exchange messages.

I also use my mobile more for texting than for phone calls. I always reply to my texts, because I am enjoy texting and it is polite. I hate it when people do not reply, because it does not take much time and it is just plain rude to ignore someone. I tend to ask people why they did not reply and most people just say "I forgot, I read it, went to do something and planned to reply to it in a bit" which I really do not understand as I reply immediately.

i don't expect someone to reply me for a every message i send, whenever i need a reply i simply make a call to the person and make a conversation for less than one minute. I also don't take the pain to reply to every message i get.

I don't have a cell phone, but I try to answer all of my comments and emails. Hugs

Well I usually use text message..but will not be offended if someone did not replied to me..

When ever i text something and other end friends give some text messages so that should be responsible to each and everyone. i have done in the same way if the people don't give messages.

well i m not much of a texting man and i usually reply texts by a call if possible. I dont reply to commercial texts and usually dont beleive in texting and would usually call if i needed a person. this way i know he got the msg instantly . No i am not offended if i dont get text back as my best friend usually dont reply easily.

No, I do not get offended any more now. Earlier I used to. Moreover now I less text message and make direct call. I sometime forget to answer the message but I do though it is late.

I use my mobile phone for texting quite alot of the time when i have credit, i send and receive quite alot of texts every day, and if someone sends me a text i will try my very best to get back to them, either by a phone call or text if i have credit. When i send text messages and people don't reply, i know thats its normally because they are busy, have no credit to reply, signal in the area they are in may not be too good, so the text may not send till later, but im not too bothered if they don't reply because i can get intouch with them some other way, like on messenger or by phoning them. I know that they will have seen the text message i sent, so no i don't feel offended.

there are messages that don't need replies so it does not matter
