Do you ever say something and have it taken the wrong way.
This has happened to me too many times.
Usually when texting, or when leaving a comment on a blog/status/tweet.
Its getting frustrating.
I say; blah blah blah Lol ;D
they say; uh, the nerve!
I say: huh?
They say: you jerk
I explain......
Do you get the picture?
The problem is too often I attempt to be short and concise when leaving a message.
I often have a good amount to say, but not wanting to carry on for a half hour I try to narrow that half hour down to a line or maybe two.
This leads to misunderstandings.
Too often the person on the receiving side of my quips is offended because I was so rude and unfeeling with my, lol's and winking smily's ;D
They mistake my lighthearted kind banter and knowing winks as mocking, harsh, raucous, and I know what you are really not saying, unbelieving winks.
And when I am misunderstood in that way, I want to shout out,
"whoa nelly!"
Calm down!
I'm teasing, I understand too well, or I just wanted you to know its okay to smile about the hard stuff sometimes.
Moral of this story: If you should receive an offensive quip from me, remember that you got it from ME and I would NEVER try to leave a mean message, EVER!
