Communication through Technology

I really do not understand. It seems so damned easy to talk to people when you're face to face but when it comes down to texting, IMing or email, it becomes a very difficult task if they're not in any way close to you.

What i am saying is, if the person you are trying to communicate, like for group projects, meetings, clarifying questions etc. people rarely reply, mostly the teenagers! They do not reply! It's like the text or IM or email is optional for you to reply. Especially the other teenagers, they believe that they're smart or the boss or just someone far above you. What has happened to common courtesy of replying a person when he or she talks to you? I'd understand if it's a stalker but what i'm talking about is an acquaintance! an enquiree! or stuff like that!

I know we're not related. I know we're not THAT close. But it is supposed to be that way? Does it have to be this way?! You have to be polite regarding such things! I mean, you're not supposed to just ignore it. You should at least give a short reply!

Is typing a few words and pressing the 'enter' button simply TOO MUCH to ask? IS IT PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE?
