To the few of you who have not insulted me and called me a stalker thank you.
I'm not going to insult you. I just wonder why you would spend days on a forum discussing a matter that could be resolved in under 2 minutes with a simple phone call. I hope you realize that you are creating your own problem.
To OP:
15 minutes isn't bad if they are somewhere they can't access their phone. What kills me is when the norm for someone is an hour.
I had a friend like this and it was the worst. I figured out that getting no reply back on a text meant that he didn't want to meet up. Not texting back is the new way of saying 'no' I think. I confronted him about it and said that I would at least like a text or call back saying 'no' and that it isn't going to hurt my feelings. He still won't do it and always blames it on something if I ask.
So now I treat him the same way. A text comes in from him and I'm busy, I just delete it and forget about it. I've spent way too much time wondering if he got my message or will get back to me.
In my eyes your friend Jake isn't a reliable or respectable person. Confront him about it. If things don't stop then stop wasting your own time waiting and wondering about him. What makes a good friend to me is someone who will take the time to communicate. If they are too busy or forgetful then they are no good friend of mine.
Good luck!
So you expect a return text if the person is at work?
Why not just go about your life and not worry about it? I don't usually stare at my phone 24/7 so if I don't respond right away it's because I am doing something. I have friends like that too. If they don't respond to me, I am assuming it's because they are busy. One of my co-workers told me to keep him updated on a trip I recently went on. I sent him texts and pictures knowing that he likely wouldn't respond. He just wanted updates. We talked when I got back, and he was the one who called me to talk about it some more.

I never called you a stalker but you have definitely veered into Amazing Amy territory from Gone Girl. oh hell, lets call a spade a spade. Stalker!
