I understand this is immature - I do not do this anymore, this was years ago. When a guy would treat me poorly I’d kind of give the same energy and wait till the last minute to view his Snapchat and Instagram stories. Kind of to show I was not interested or prioritizing him. Just wondering if guys may do the same thing? Intentionality with delayed responses and viewing?

No I've never done that I don't even think about that kind of stuff... I think it's probably all over my head or something because I'm just me and I don't ever need to get back at anybody here they do something to me it is what it is
Intentionally delayed responses can happen, but a lot of the time I have external reasons for that. For example I may not DM back for a while on this site because I want to make proper time for that conversation and had a busy day.
But I check as actively as I am getting messages. So if it takes someone hours to reply ill start doing other stuff and check back in a few hours. If someone is replying in seconds ill keep actively paying attention to the conversation. If you aren't prioritizing our conversation chances are I won't either.
And of course since I have a ton of online contacts if people message me "Hi" chances are I won't reply at all and you will never hear back from me unless were close friends. I always want to know the reason someone is going to chat with me so I know its worth replying to. If someone is merely going to chat with me to beg me for something I have made then chances are they won't ever get a reply either, while if someone needs my help I'd reply pretty quickly.
From my own observations, I would have guessed that females spend way more time on social media than men, but I guess it's not right to judge based on my small circle.
After looking it up, apparently females do spend more time on social media on average, but not by a significant amount like I thought. And if I had to guess, that's because they spend more time posting stuff.
The more interesting fact is that there are actually MORE men that use social media than girls according to Oberlo. About 53% of the global population of males use social media and about 46% of the global population of females use social media.
I myself spend anywhere from no time to about 1 hour on Instagram a day, which is pretty low in comparison to the chart shown. I didn't realize the majority of guys spent this much time on social media.
I will also add that I spend an inordinate amount of time on GaG, which counts as social media. So that ups my time spent on social media by a lot
Nope. What a waste of time to read something and then sit their thinking about how you're going to wait x amount of minutes to post a reply. If you get a message and aren't busy just respond immediately if you got the time, if you need to look into something get back to them later, otherwise just block them if they are a waste of energy and move on. When girls wait to post simple responses, it generally makes them look brain damaged.
The average man spends 1:48 minutes a day socializing. The average woman spend 1:43 socializing. That's your window to say what you want if you want someone to listen to what you are saying. Otherwise you get passed over for the next day.
Many guys tend to act like they’re not drawn to social media — acting like it’s a girl thing — but they’re online ALL the time, so 🤷🏻♀️.
Are they?
Yeah. Take off your helmet and look at all the young guys for a sec. Snappa-frappa-insta-ticktoking timebombs….
I'll give ya a helmet...⚔️
Gee, thanks.
It’s not just guys and girls that are different but also guys n guys, also girls n girls all different.
Intentionally delayed responses sometimes happen, but a lot of men simply aren't thinking that deep about it. Men and women are definitely not the same when it comes to social media.
They couldn't be more different and girls just can't figure this out.
My personal experience no I just be forgetting to reply (no really it might take me weeks, months, years to respond)
shit, i just block the shitty person... protect your mind at all cost... and from my pov dont do this childish behavior cuz it will then become your habit and can ruin your future relationship
Lol yes of course. I still do it until they gain my attention.
In general far form it. Very far from it.
Not in my experience.
No...
Nope.
