If I'm on Messenger.....

If I'm on Messenger.....


If I'm on messenger in the middle of the night it means that I've opted to stay home for the evening. I have a very busy life and sometimes I enjoy having the chance to slow down and relax at home.

I'm most likely sitting on my bed, nice and comfy, watching an episode of any number of good shows and enjoying the occasional chat with someone at the same time.

Declining your request to rush out the door to meet you somewhere does not make me a fake. It is not an "excuse not to meet anyone". Contrary to popular belief, NO is a very valid response to meeting a total stranger, whoever you are, at o'dark thirty. Being pushy and trying to tell me all the reasons why my reasons for not wanting to are stupid is not helping to further your cause, that being actually getting to meet me, or anyone for that matter.

On another note, I have a 'which comes first' kind of question. Have people always been so incredibly impatient, or has social media and the advent of "instant communication" technology made everyone forget their manners?

How do you know they have all those pushy reactions? Do they immediately hurl abuse in the same chat window if you don't respond?
I get a lot of ignoring but certainly it never occurred to me to question the person on the other end. But on the few times somebody bites we often have good long creative chats.
