Do any of you end up fighting with your girlfriend/wife (or boyfriend for the lone female member of the board) over text? I just got into it with mine as we were texting back and forth.

I said something that she completely took out of context and she is over-reacting to it. I tried to call her, but she won't answer, and she is out of town, so I cant try to explain face to face.

Sometimes I fucking hate texting because with the stupid little smiley faces or not, something always gets taken the wrong way.

I'm so pissed right now it isn't even funny.

You aren't supposed to have conversations via text message.

Agreed.

Color me retarded, but am I missing something? I don't see the difference between IM, email, and texting as far as having a conversation goes.

I guess because, as fast as texting is, email and IM are faster. And have a wider variety of smilies to convey appropriate emotion.
