What to do about answering in time?

Hey everyone, I've been finding that receiving advice has been very helpful, and thanks be to God, I am learning more each day. So, my questions today would be 1) what to do about the people texting me? I've been told in the course—and I totally agree—that I should give quick answers. But, my answers are usually in the span of a couple minutes, because I have different people texting me. I'm at a loss, and I just keep apologising and being honest about it. The people who I talk to say say they are fine with it, but I am not. I get personal requests etc, and people text me who already know me, so it keeps multiplying. I would like to give a quick answer. Maybe I can say I am busy, and just talk to one select person? I can imagine that I'm not the only person who has this difficulty. 2) I heard there's something called being mentored. Sounds quite interesting. Who does that? Do people receive that? How is it like? May God bless you all!! Holy Mary protect you, amen

Ttypically, if your status is set as offline or busy you don't get many people messaging you. It's not even possible for a member to request to chat, the system just allows to send a message. If I do that with an offline/busy listener I do not expect a response right away.

If you do feel the need to respond asap you could arrange a time to chat, but it's not necessary!
