iMessage automatically "reading" message from 1 specific contact

I'm not longer getting notifications for iMessages received from one specific contact. I've verified this by turning on read receipts and this particular sender is seeing that I'm immediately reading the messages after they are sent.


Do Not Disturb is not on and I do not have alerts hidden for this contact.


I have an iPhone 7 on iOS 11.4


Thanks,

So you and the other party couldn't be mis-construed as one and the same party by virtue of links or circular relationships within Contacts? Well then take a look at this report having to do with simplex versus duplex location sharing:

Otherwise I'm confident that this fault effect will be fixed in iOS 12 which is, of course, right around the corner.
