You’re allowed to answer a text tomorrow. Urgent is their word, not yours.

Urgency belongs to whoever is feeling it, and it does not transfer just because a message arrived. Phones make everything look equally immediate, so a question about Saturday sits in the same place as something that genuinely cannot wait. Answering instantly every time teaches people that you will, and then slowness starts to feel like rudeness. Most things keep fine overnight.

Let one message that is not urgent sit until tomorrow this week. Not as a point, just as practice. If something truly cannot wait, people call, and almost nobody calls.
