When you really like someone you're texting with, it can be easy to get anxiety spiraled up into reading their response time as more than it is. For those of you who haven't sat there in terror feeling every single second between sending a text and receiving a response four hours later, we applaud you. But for the rest of us who do know the feeling of anticipation and fear between firing off texts and DMs and memes, here's what it means when he's presumably not at work and just choosing to text you back at this time.
(And FYI: If your text partner is busy at work and you're still wondering, like, Why does he take so long to text me back? he's got a legit excuse! None of these really apply, because they are at work and probs can't be the rapid-fire text partner you want or need in that moment because job! Just like you can't be expected to be hyper-responsive 24/7, aka during important meetings, it goes both ways. But this article is more for when you know they are just at home chillin' and don't have an annual review happening at that exact moment.)
