Family? Good friends? How well do you know them? What the messages are about?

Previous friends. Bf. Acquaintances that I've been cooperating with about something before.
Pretty sure that what I have in mind isn't them just being busy and accidentally overseeing the messages from me. Too much of a pattern. I mean if I now texted them three times over two weeks, and they usually see the messages and texts from me, then surely they couldn't have skipped all three of them by accident now.
What they are about, they are about things that do need a response.
Example, bf, he was going to do an important bank wire transfer and it had a deadline determined by a contract. And I ask him about it and he doesn't respond (he was in a different country at the time so this was online messaging/texts). And yes I was involved too with the contract, so my asking about this transfer was highly relevant, not just meddling or anything like that.
Or person who was supposedly a friend, he doesn't respond to a text, ok, I text again 8 days later, still doesn't respond, I text again after waiting, and I add that I would like to talk about something important with him (it was important yes). I still got ignored. Long story, after a few more messages and stress he did respond but was being really passive aggressive with me in the response.
And so on....
Now, you mention family too. Blood family has never ignored any message from me. I can't even imagine them doing so. I mean, close family. As far as the big family, that could be different, an aunt recently did not respond to my email, but I did meet her IRL afterwards so it was irrelevant and no idea if she was deliberately trying to ignore my email. I kinda feel like she was, because she was originally set to meet me and my brother together, we just did not have a set date and time yet. But then she arranged to see my brother and did not contact me first. Then I did get her phoned and ended up seeing her in the end, she did not have a problem with it, and we did have a good talk and discussed the email's topic too just fine, so that's why I am not sure what was up with that one.
So yeah, what's up with this outside (close) family.
