As someone who often mutes friends who text too aggressively during polite hours (because why are you sending me 5-10 texts within a few minutes?), I would simply mute this "friend" forever.
AITA for muting a friend who constantly texts me late at night?
Feb 2, 2026 13:16I am bad about this and will send messages in the middle of the night assuming they'll just ignore it until morning. I'm fine with being muted if it's annoying.
But yeah I get all galaxy-brained at like 1 am on 15 mg of sativa.
I think it's more "If you don't answer my late-night texts even though you've told me you'll be sleeping, you're a bad friend" that is sending me into apoplexy
My phone is either on silent or in another room when I'm sleeping or don't want to talk to people. It's a huge benefit and anyone that texts me often knows this. Text me all you want - I'll get there when I get there. 🤷♀️
