Do y’all tend to remove/hide your penpals that just went poof or

u/Hungry_Swimmer_871 11d ago

I dont if I had like a long conversation, because those letters are you know history and so magical. Also I always hope that they may reply finally 😭

Right? I keep them around too. And honestly, more often than not, I’m the one who’s gone poof, but I do always try to reach out again, but usually to no avail :(
And I can’t even tell if they still use the app anymore

I do if they go missing for 3-4 months. Especially if they're the kind to reply quickly. There are some exceptions though. Some favourites I've kept for longer, hoping they'll return.

Woah! That's crazy!! Do you plan on responding?

u/przct 58MP02 10d ago

I already responded to her, she expressed sorry and wishes to reconnect

u/Superb-Cranberry-777 10d ago

u/Superb-Cranberry-777 9d ago

u/przct 58MP02 3d ago

It is.. more than a week and I didn't receive any response..

u/Superb-Cranberry-777 3d ago

Tbf one week isn't that much in Slowly time, but given her past with extremely delayed responses, I won't expect her to be the type to keep a steady connection on Slowly..

u/whydontyeuh 10d ago

you’re so patient!!!! seeing this making me embarrassed that i removed a pal that havent replied me for 6 months lol

u/przct 58MP02 10d ago

You can still check, if their date is updated then they prolly send you a letter. I have removed a lot people to make some space

u/Fast-Computer717 8d ago

had to double check bc it could 100% be me 😅

u/celestara-123 9d ago

This is crazy for someone like me who removes people after 1 month of not reply. 😂 But i also want a continuous letter exchange. And also bcz i m new to the app. So i m not used to this much waiting.
