Right, that's my point. Then you aren't close.

If you were, you'd have his imessage / whatsapp. Facebook is a 3rd tier form of communication for a reason.

With all due respect, you have no clue if we’re close.

FB Messenger is just fine. It has the same features as iMessage and WhatsApp, and plenty of folks use it as primary comms.

I should qualify my statement by saying this rule is true for younger generations. Boomers use FB messenger as a primary communication tool, you're right.

I'm in my 30s and this is true as well for my generation. Messenger/WhatsApp.
