MODERATORS
Oof, that's relatable. I can't explain how many dating app conversations go stale like that.
<1hr after I get a text: pretend I didn't see the notification because I can't deal with it right now
1-5 hrs after: read it, and stress constantly about what to say
2 days after: realize I didn't respond, get stressed because it's now long enough to be awkward, and I have to change what I say
1 week after: realize it's really too late now, the conversation sits for eternity
