I’m really bad at replying quickly to my friends and wish that they didn’t expect that from me yet at the same time hate when someone I care about is slow to reply or leaves me on read because I feel like they don’t like me 😂 Anyone relate?

Me too! It’s like replying quickly is a huge task I can’t overcome, and it makes me kind of anxious knowing that a reply is expected.
One of my biggest probelms. Lost friends over this.
Me too!!!
I feel you!
What pops in to my mind reading this is the issue of taking late replies personally, both from their and your perspective, and whether or not your friends are worth making a conscious effort to reply quicker for. But I’m the same way with replies, I don’t really care if I get a late one and most of the people I talk to don’t either lol. I even go as far as to return their apology when they’re sorry for replying late because I just see it as unnecessary
I can relate, I never know what is expected exactly
