if you need to keep an eye on your phone, I recommend letting the person know in the beginning. So I have this important call that I'm expecting, or I need to keep an eye on this specific thing. So then you're not, it doesn't come across like you're looking at every single notification that comes in. It's one specific thing. Yeah. I agree with that.

Yes, not take it personally, and then also recognize that tone can be different. I remember once my sister sent a picture, and it was her in a beautiful gown with her boyfriend, and my mom said something like, you look beautiful, hope you had a nice time.
