Do you ever intentially delay your responses to emails, with someone you know or are related to but don't want it to become a daily thing? Like if you get an email from someone that wants to get a little too familiar, do you purposely wait a few days before replying?

that might be a better way, with some people e-mail starts to be like a live chat, where the instant they receive your email they are already typing a reply

I came home to 23 emails waiting for me. I have responded to only a couple.
email is my usual way of chatiing with people now adays. I find it easier then calling at a bad time and vice versa. Some emails are only for fun too and don't require a response.

I totally know what you mean and yes I do it!

I only delay e-mails when I feel the person is getting a little too clingy though.
