Is it ever excusable to ignore a message? Lurking without responding to anything is peculiar. If you truly never want to interact with a particular person or people, then gently abscond from the entire WhatsApp thread. If you’re in a group thread, be present when you can. Out of all the possible response times available to a person, I find ‘never’ a strange choice. When someone asks a question of the entire group and it’s obvious they need an answer, I find it extremely weird how many people will simply never reply. That said, I think people often get away with what would usually be extremely rude behaviour. That’s what I don’t like about phone calls they interrupt someone’s day without notice.
Just because you can reach someone easily, doesn’t mean you’re entitled to their instantaneous reply.
Just because a message has been received, it doesn’t mean that person owes its sender an immediate response. Life is happening, so there are any number of reasons why you can’t respond straight away. Of course it’s acceptable to leave messages unanswered for a time, even if you’ve technically seen them.
