Toxic texters may insist that their texts receive immediate attention, read all your communications and police your phone, gaslight you, and then isolate you.

Tell them to Fluff Off.

Problem solved.

I do the occasional group text to people for various reasons, usually related to the cubs, and will do very short texts. Generally "Call me" if it is something complicated.

Same here.

I *HATE* group texts.

My phone is NOT my lifeline to the world. I have a flip phone (dumb phone) for calls and occasional texts, but it’s not easy to text on for longer messages. If I have something more to say, I might use email or probably just call the person.

I don’t use voicemails either. Hate those as well......

I’d prefer texts over voicemails. Just tell me to call you or just try calling me.
