For me is more like "when i have the time i will reply"
Two seconds later: "i believe i have already replied to it so it's fine"
Next day looking at my phone:

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Your friends know you have an executive function disorder. They will still be happier to get a response eventually. There might be some gentle ribbing, but it'll be intended to be taken in stride.
I didn't know I was on the spectrum until I got diagnosed earlier this year; I'd made this comic well before then (/I'm just sharing my old comics in this community) but in hindsight there's a few of them that make more sense to me now that I know.
Hehe, yeah. Well, it's not like there is a small amount of us. And that's without including all the people that just don't know yet. So, it still makes for popular comic material.
Y'all, I still haven't responded to a wedding invitation from more than a year ago. I said "no" after careful thought about travel expenses, but I wanted so much to follow up with a thoughtful response and just. Didn't. Even though I think about it at least monthly. Last thought about it was, "well, maybe the 2nd year anniversary of the invitation is the right time to respond." Fucking awful.
Oh, this is OC?
I hate how relatable this comic is
Yeah same. I don't have many friends and those I do I neglect. I don't deserve them.
Just moved house, working 2 jobs, finding it hard to fit everything in
I've been thinking every so often that I need to reply to my friend's text, because it's been a while since he messaged me. Thinking it'd only been a few weeks, maybe a month tops.
He texted me last June.
...I am an irredeemable monster
Oh thank you so much! That's exactly what's happening. I will save it for the next time I take forever to answer.
I hate that I do this, but when I do finally respond to an email or letter and it's been too long, I sign off with "Yours eventually"
I just messaged someone after not getting back after 4 years :) . Online friend so not completely crazy to have not communicated.

I'll share it with my friend
Dude this makes me sad. Many times I ended up doing the same thing because I got busy. Then my best friend died and I never got to say goodbye. Sucks.
It really sucks. I didn't get time to talk with my friend for a month. Yesterday I called him after seeing this.
