A: I thought we were good friends. I was asking for your advice on which dress to wear to my first date with Pete this morning but you never returned my message. B: I am so sorry I neglexted you. I got so busy at work and then went out with my co-workers right after. Note: This new coined word, obviously by putting together “neglect” and “text,” refers to the act of abandoning someone mid-conversation for a prolonged period of time (intentionally or unintentionally) via the sending of messages electronically, especially from one cell phone to another. |
