My sister read my late night texts and told me I sounded desperate, now I draft everything
I used to send rambling 2 AM messages to friends about random memories and fears, until my sister grabbed my phone last Tuesday and read one out loud in a whiny voice. She said I text like I'm trying to keep people awake so they'll talk to me, which stung because it's TRUE. Now I write my thoughts in the notes app for 10 minutes, reread them in the morning, and delete 90% of them, but has anyone else found a better way to get the lonely thoughts out without hitting send?
