Texting has no personality. No tone of voice. This is how one of my biggest miscommunications occurred. I began having a conversation with one of my friends via text message. She had said "hey dude." and my reply was "Whatever." It may seem that this wasn't the nicest reply on my part but, it had been sent to her on accident. We all know how that goes...sending a text to one person when it was meant for someone else. Once this happened she was all upset that I didn't want to talk to her and how rude it was. Then before I got the chance to text her what had happened my phone had died. It wasn't until I had finally seen her at the UC did I get to tell her what had happened. Improving future actions while texting can only happen if you're careful who you're sending your texts to.

*Have you ever been misunderstood while texting?
