What does '…' mean in a text message?

The “…”, in grammatical terms, is called an ELLIPSIS (not to be confused with ellipses, the plural for the mathematical term, ellipse, defined as a plane curve surrounding two focal points, such that for all points on the curve, the sum of the two distances to the focal points is a constant). Technically, the ellipsis is used in writing or printing to indicate an omission, especially of letters or words. For example, ellipsis are frequently used within quotations to jump from one prhase to another or for omitting unnecessary words that do not interfere with the meaning. Specifically, students writing research papers, for example, or newspapers quoting parts of speeches will often employ ellipsis to avoid copying longer parts of a quote that are either not needed or do not specifically add to the point the writer is trying to convey.

I am a huge abuser and misuser of the ellipsis and use it informally…AD NAUSEAM, especially in informal social media posts and rants. Per the technical, grammatical definition of the ellipsis, I misuse it by using it in place of creating a compound sentence with the use of the conjunction “and", preceeded by a comma. And perhaps I do it at times because I'm just being lazy, and its easier for me to use an ellipsis than to decide if all the rules have been met to denote a compound sentence that necessitates a comma. But more so, I use it NOT when expressing a “mundane” compound sentence, like for example: 'This house is too expensive, and that house is too small.' I use it more so when explaining a “cause and effect” scenario where I want the reader's predominant focus to be on the almost surprising nature of the leap in logic purported or demonstrated by the 2nd half of the sentence. In the same vein, only deeper into my thought process, I use it for cause/effect scenarios where there is perhaps an initial cause but a long line of causation being ommitted, going straight to the final effect, which may or may not be obvious to the reader….and when not obvious usually denotes a life event worth sharing, perhaps because it doesn't follow logic, or whose outcome expressed may be very unusual, odd or interesting to the reader.

More specifically, the informal use of the ellipsis is to denote an omission of anything after the first/main/primary cause up to, but of course, not including the final effect expressed by the writer. Realistically, the ellipsis in informal use in texts and posts serves as an arbitrary tool whose use is very condotional but that helps move things along, or speed things up a bit in today's time strspped climate. for both the reader and the writer by allowing for the omissions of potentially a long line of causation in between. More specifically, the omission takes place after the “first” or “primal” or “initial" cause is stated, and continues up to the ultimate point, or punch line if you will, is stated on the other/right side of the ellipsis. The actual substance, nature, and dare I say soundness of the causal links in between being omitted really are of no matter, as the informal use of the ellipsis can justify incredibly blind or questionable leaps in logic, and again often done so to create humor or for entertainment value in conversation.

I use the ellipsis most often to create dramatic effect, to get people to, in a sense, feel the incredibly fast and often chaotic nature of how one thing can seem to magically lead to another, and yet a more distant another, and so on, and so on, until what quickly results is some ultimate effect unforeseen. Thus is life. And the ellipsis is there to help capture these subtleties.
