Honest question, if I have to ask for 3 pieces of information, would it help if I sent it in 3 messages?
Message 1: how many people are coming to dinner?
Message 2: are any vegetarian?
Message 3: what time are they arriving?
Personally I would prefer the 1 message with 3 questions vs the 3 messages with 1 question each(many messages in short time make me think something is wrong and urgent), what's your preference?
It's a lot easier with separate messages. The visual separation helps a lot.
Interesting. Thanks for the quick response.
Really the only thing that really annoys me over text is yes/no to not yes/no questions.
Me: I've had a long day so was going to just pick up dinner on way home, do you want pizza or burgers?
Partner: yes
Would I like one of those? Yeah I would
I literally just felt my blood pressure increase...
The answer is clear. BOTH. Or just ask them to answer 1 or 2 to these kind of questions, if you're not gonna let them indulge.
So... https://www.simplyrecipes.com/cheeseburger-pizza-recipe-6835783
This is... Definitely something... Just do this every time your partener isn't clear enough about their intentions. They'll clarify real quick.
Lol, sorry result of a 30 second search, especially the pickles and mayo make me think twice.
I knew a place with a cheeseburger pizza but it was basically just a regular pizza with cheedar cheese and ground beef.
Nah for me 1 message is where it's at, I was just joking. I like it when people send over one message with everything they need to tell or ask so I can respond without going into a back and forward, ESPECIALLY if I'm busy with work but not necessarily.
I also ask multiple things in one message but people never ever take the time to respond to all of them... Fucking ever, it pisses me off lol, because I put effort into writing a coherent message then they just discard it most of the time :-/
