I am so grateful for the iPhone reply function in texts.

ETA: I am not a shill, just someone who gets text convos tangled up very quickly.

me and my girl both have androids.

as you can imagine, this makes for really chaotic texting especially since we both have insanely fast brains that can't stay on topic.

most of the time though, i'm just happy to be talking to her even if it doesn't make sense

Before most social media added the reply feature, I used to copy the message I wanted to respond, and then add a /// to separate my answer. So it would be "[original message] /// [my answer]". Good thing we can reply on most apps nowadays — it's so vital for us fast-brainers.

Just putting this out in case you don't know the trick :)
