how many people are you actually talking to at once

Genuine census question because I suspect everyone lies about this.

I am currently talking to five people. Not in a smug way, it just happened, they all arrived in about a fortnight. And I have discovered that I am not good at five. Yesterday I asked someone how her sister’s move went and it was a different person’s sister. She was nice about it. I wanted to walk into the sea.

I have also noticed I write worse when there are five. Shorter, blander, more like clearing a queue than talking to anyone.

So what is everybody’s actual number, and is there a point where it stops being reasonable and starts being something you should mention? Nobody has met anybody yet in my case, so I do not think I am doing anything wrong, but I would rather hear how other people think about it than decide on my own at eleven at night.

What the playbook says about this

Matching threads split into two questions: what to say, and what a silence means. The answer to both is usually further up the profile than the message box, which is why the bio and the tag stack are here alongside the etiquette.

The bio that does the sorting for you
What a like, a view and a silence each signal
Where tags read as desires rather than a rule sheet
