But not in a bad way!
Just out of sight out of mind.
Or my personal bane, “forgot to hit send.”
My best friend can disappear for >2 weeks.
I have started;
- Saving funny/relatable images like this when I come across them.
- Texting them one a day to, basically the one person I’m still in regular contact with.
It fulfills the role of keeping in touch (like small talk does for regular people), without so far causing any of the anxiety, procrastination, out of sight out of mind, ghosting problems that typically plague my relationships. YMMV, naturally.
If they don’t call, it’s not important
And there’s a solid 50% chance that I will not answer that call
Just like there’s a 50% chance I’ll plug in a USB-A cable correctly on the first try… 50% chance in theory but more like 0% in practice.
What the hell do they expect calling at… any hour of the day?
If it’s important, they’ll leave a message.
and if it’s really important, they’ll text
If they don’t leave a voicemail, it’s not that important
People who leave voicemails demand to be ignored. No way it’s important enough for me to have to listen to your audio recording when a text would’ve been fine.
