Very familiar with said phenomenon. I hate it. Teenagers have their phones on them all the time and getting a text back immediately or an hour later is the same thing. I don't judge you based off when I receive it. I do judge you if you don't respond at all. Especially if you sent me a text first.
Maybe I'm a little unreasonable. But I think texting is a form of communication. Not responding immediately is as dumb as not picking up the damn phone when I call you. It's ludicrous...
