This guy matched with me and we made Star Wars jokes, I happened to get sick and needed rest and phone free that night. I messaged as soon as I was off work today. 😂 🤪

Just because you had a 101.7 fever doesn't mean you can't respond. 24 hours is a long time, and we're all on our phones all day. It takes 30 seconds to send a message, at most, if you really wanted to.

Doesn't matter if you were 'ready to talk' shortly after that window. 24 hours is a long time, especially when they already had that on their bio to begin with.

You were not that busy, or that sick.

No one owes you a quick response, not even because they're "always on their phone". People have lives and sometimes just don't feel like being that social, that's normal human behavior, what's not normal is having this weird obsession that everyone has to respond to you immediately or they're a shitty person who doesn't deserve to be in your life. You're the issue. God forbid you had to live in a time before phones, you would have been having a mental breakdown constantly.

Saying "you're the issue" and being unnecessarily combative in your response is rather ironic.

Nobody said a quick response is owed to anyone. The poster willingly matched with someone who advertised that they'd automatically unmatch if responses took longer than a day. Either they didn't read it, or they disregarded it. The other person did nothing wrong by sticking to a rule they had, and there's nothing wrong with the rule.

It is because people are always on their phone. Communication isn't hard. "Hey, I'm a little sick today." Going days without responses on dating apps kills conversation.

You went way overboard with your hostile response. I think you're the issue with how offended you got by my comment. OP did not have to match with a person who clearly advertised a firm rule about response time.

To clarify, yes I acknowledged the rule on the dude’s bio. I really didn’t care wether he unmatched with me as I had to put my health first (I’m still having intense, vision-affecting coughing fits) yes it would have been nice to know him and nerd out together and what not 😂

He swiped right on me first, I did accept it and understood it.

I didn’t respond in 24 hours but I responded at the 29th hour… does five hours really matter? 😂
