I hate that now I can see when someone has read the message but chose not to respond.

@jmarionsmith: oohhh I didn't realize you could! I've wondered why sometimes it shows up and sometimes doesn't!

I have mine turned off because sometimes I just don't feel like replying right away! Haha

@regberadaisy: @runsyellowlites: yup! go to settings, then messages, and it's the "send read receipts"

I have a blackberry, and blackberry messaging has that feature. I hate it because my mom gets really upset if she knows I'm ignoring her, but almost every time I reply it turns into a 30 minute back and forth conversation. Sometimes I don't have time for that!

I might have done that to some people. I think to myself that I'll reply in a sec, but then completely forget. Totally not meant to ignore. Same thing happens with email sometimes.

@jmarionsmith: mine is off so I can respond when I feel like it.
It also buys me time if the message is crazy & I need time to think of a good response.
@regberadaisy: DH has his option turned on and I stalk the message after I've sent him one. If he ignores it or tries to pull the "I didn't get a msg", I'm quick to say "iMessage said you read it at so&so time." Lol'

DH doesn't like that I have that option off. He apparently likes to know that the msg was not only delivered, but that I read it. I told him I won't give him that satisfaction and keep a little bit of mystery in our marriage ;).

I have my read receipt turned off too. I hate it. I get DH's read receipt though.

I have mine turned off b/c I don't want people to know I'm ignoring them! Or that I'm the weirdo with my phone right in front of me all the time that reads texts as soon as they come in.

I have mine turned off because I don't want people to know if I haven't read it. Sometimes, it's not that I'm ignoring them, it's that I've read it and am choosing to respond at a better time.
