Text Words

I find that using the computer is good. And chatting on msn... These kind of stuff. They're good. Coz they promote confidence in people, and they get to be able to communicate with people of the opposite gender, or, people they don't dare to talk to in real life. People are less shy and they can communicate better.

Although, there's a negative side to it. These are just texts... words... And they can only be read. They can't be heard. So you can't hear the tone of the person you're talking to. He or she can just be speaking in a happy tone, but the person who is reading the words can mistaken them, and think that they are being scolded, or that they have gotten the person pissed off...

Also, there was a news article once where this man and his girlfriend cheated men on the net. He would pretend to be some poor girl, who is in need of money yadda yadda yadda... And sometimes, the person he's cheating would want to hear "her" voice. Then "she" waould call "her" girlfriend to talk on the phone. The person that they are cheating would no longer suspect... They got away with thousands of dollars...

So from this situation, it also shows that you can lie to someone using msn. The perosn won't know whether you're a girl or a boy. You can just lie about EVERYTHING. The person can't see you... And it's the same using a handphone too. I've been tricked MANY times, but they're all the same person -_- Sigh... If he's reading this, he should know who it is.

I'm jsut saying, if you think that you're in these kinds of situations, talk to someone about it. Get help if you want. But don't try to be a smart-aleck and deal with it yourselves... You could make the wrong decisions...
