Text Limbo 

Where text messages go when they become delayed for unknown reasons. Usually the source of great frustration when they arrive many hours late.

1. I was hook up with that girl but my messages were getting trapped in text limbo.
2. Eric's messages got out of text limbo at 5am and woke me up.

When you text someone and you don't get a response for over 10 minutes.

I texted Suzy on Monday about the 1000 word essay due on Wednesday and i was in text limbo until Thursday.

Text Limbo 

That awkward moment when you and your friend start saying something over chat at the same time, but stop in order to see what the other person will say. Silence will ensue.

Fred Larraby: Talking to my friend right now over text.

Krishna Patel: What is he saying?

Fred Larraby: I don't know, he was texting something, then I wanted to say something, but he stopped. Now I'm waiting for him to say something, I guess this is text limbo.

Fred Larraby's Friend: What was he saying!?
