Dear Eric: We met a nice couple who was seated at the table with us on a cruise last summer. We had a few things in common and pleasant conversations. They shared a travel schedule and plans to be on the go all the time. My husband and I have traveled very extensively and now travel sparingly due to my husband’s often poor health.

They met the couple on a cruise, but will never see them again. Why do they insist on texting their travelogue and photos?

This couple gives us a text travelogue and photos of resorts, Hawaiian beaches, exotic places, etc., whenever they go. We are simply not interested and last week’s text gave me pause, wondering how to respond.
