Is it normal to text a friend a lot every day?
Depends.It depends
Yes, plenty of friends text throughout the day. It works best when you both enjoy the pace and neither feels pressured to reply constantly.
Some friends message all day about little things; others catch up once in a while and still feel close. There’s no universal “right” amount—it depends on your friendship and how much you both like texting.
A good clue is whether it feels mutual and easy. If your friend takes longer to reply, they may just be busy or prefer less texting, so give them room rather than treating every gap like a problem.
