I know a lot of my friends are texting freaks, and take maybe 30 seconds to respond. Others respond quickly a lot of the time, but sometimes don't for a day or two. Most of them being men. Is it just me thinking this is odd, or is this "normal?"

I take forever to respond. I'm a slow texter and I hate it. If I can call, I will. Texting is lame to me.

Sometimes a minute, sometimes a week, sometimes more. I am not organically bonded to my phone.

I respond when I get the message, which may not be for several hours. When I'm at home, my cell phone is in my purse, usually in a different part of the house. If I think about it, I'll check the phone but more often than not someone could send me a message at 4:30pm that I won't get until 8 the next morning.

My phone service is weird where I live and sometimes it takes me hours to receive text messages. Then, I get 5 rapid fire wondering why I haven't responded

I try to respond right away if I can, but that's not always the case.

Women respond faster than men! I usually text my guy friends if it's a direct question and short. If it's anything more than 2 sentences, expect a delay in response hahahah

Depends on the question.

"I'd like to go out later tonight? Wanna hang?" requires them to get back to you sooner than "What do you think of Justin Bieber?"
