How should I respond to this seemingly harmless text?

1 Answer

Answer :

Ok…and my head hurts, sorry I was going to try to answer the question until I read this huge ‘Wall O’ text’. But I think I’ll just say that it was just a text and whether to go get coffee or not, only you and the people involved can turn it into a big deal. Maybe Jill (or whoever sent you the text) just wants to talk about stuff to clear the air.
