MODERATORS
Can't say it's never happened. It was a lot worse in my 20's. Social anxiety was bad.
Responding to a text you don't feel like responding to is just a chore that needs to be done. You respond, set a mental limit on back-and-forth banter, then hard stop it with an excuse when you're done. If you get into it and it's not taxing, go with it, if it's killing you, throw out i'll have to talk to you later and then be the bad friend :)
