No response.
Til today Her: I never heard back from u Monday Me: I asked when I could and u never replied Her: SCREENSHOTS our convo and says "U didn't ask u said "when I can" so I didn't know how to reply to that!!! I don't know when ur available man" Me: Please go back and re read the exact pic you sent me and then apologize Her: I am so sorry....that you didn't use a question mark

12770707, LOL she's funny Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 01:41 PM
can you imagine being married to her though. *finger gun to the head*
|
12770711, lolol well your text was a little confusing but she shoulda said huh? or Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 01:42 PM
something instead of saying you never replied and then showing you the response where you clearly replied. lol
|
12770718, his text is not confusing lol Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 01:44 PM
shit is clear as day.
|
12770754, no it isn't... Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 02:07 PM
when is he available...
when is he free...
tomorrow at 8.
when can I... without punctuation comes off like "yo, I never agreed to do it"
|
12770760, jesus christ. Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:11 PM
"when can i"
is unclear to you?
hooked on phonics bro. i hear it works.
|
12770761, She's asking for the favor, though. It's on her to go the extra Posted by Teknontheou, Thu Apr-02-15 02:11 PM
mile to clear up whatever confusion she might have had.
|
12770766, that we agree on, but th at doesn't mean it wasn't confusing Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:12 PM
|
12770777, doesnt seem remotely confusing to me Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Thu Apr-02-15 02:19 PM
you are in here talking like text messages got a copy editor. man fucking with these young bitches everything is a mystery of abbreviations, misspellings (often intentional), poor grammar, etc. punctuation is a luxury. as someone who typically has to be super anal about everything (yesterday at work a coworker had a 5-minute argument with an editor over COMMA USAGE), i actually find it refreshing and, surprisingly, seldom do i find myself unclear on what's being said
|
12770798, and i'm the opposite...if your text is confusing or coulld mean multiple Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:26 PM
things, i'm disregarding it until i have time to deal with it.
unless of course, i'm asking for something.
But that fact that YOU understand it, don't mean its any less confusing.
|
12771895, when can ... is it ... are you ... these are all the start of QUESTIONS Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Fri Apr-03-15 04:52 PM
no statement begins with "when can ..." ever, not once in history
|
12770811, ^ Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:31 PM
|
12770820, Oh, I woulda hit him back ASAP because IMO it wasn't clear Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 02:36 PM
|
12770853, ur right. if she needs the favor it's on her to pursue said favor. Posted by PROMO, Thu Apr-02-15 02:55 PM
but yeah, his reply was confusing with the "..."
|
12772051, "When can I?" is confusing to you? Posted by Cold Truth, Sat Apr-04-15 09:28 AM
|
12770716, lol the first time I read this I read "when I can" as well Posted by SuiteLady, Thu Apr-02-15 01:44 PM
|
12770721, lol...they gotta gene that won't allow em Posted by ambient1, Thu Apr-02-15 01:46 PM
|
12770742, you aren't wrong but text better dude... Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 02:00 PM
when can I...
man, that reads like "hold up, I didn't say I could"
ionno... that was a shitty exchange.
|
12770762, She gets the gym. She has to tell me when I can. She asked a question first Posted by Geah, Thu Apr-02-15 02:11 PM
with no ?
|
12770771, lmao...yeah the irony that she gonna ding you for no ? Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Apr-02-15 02:14 PM
when she didn't use one.
If she was reasonable, she woulda just said "my bad" and picked the convo back up.
LOL at you punting over it tho.
|
12770773, Yeah I don't know what she thought he meant but no response wasnt Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:16 PM
The answer...and then claiming he didn't response when he did...was wrong too
|
12770793, Yeah...punting might be a better response Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Apr-02-15 02:25 PM
than what I'd do. I get too caught up in 'training'.
YOU GONNA GET THIS WORK!
Guess it all depends on who 'she' is to me too. I'd go straight adult on her if I felt compelled though:
"Look, I don't mind helping your lil man out but let's be grown about the communication. If you didn't use a ? and assumed I'd understand your question, don't get technical with my question. You're responsible for getting the gym so you'd need to coordinate the time and provide me options/info right?"
She probably wouldn't respond but I'd feel 110% vindicated for exposing her to communication with a grown man. lol
|
12770823, OK, I she gets the gym it makes more sense Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 02:38 PM
|
12770866, it didn't make sense when i wrote it up top? Posted by Geah, Thu Apr-02-15 03:02 PM
|
12770903, nah, I skimmed. Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 03:21 PM

|
12771876, I wuz wrong but I can admit it Posted by legsdiamond, Fri Apr-03-15 04:19 PM
|
12770782, "When can I" is a question. Every time, without fail, by nature Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Thu Apr-02-15 02:21 PM
There is nothing unclear here.
|
12770804, when can I.... Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:28 PM
I was waiting for the rest of this thought lol
and like legs said...It could come off like "when can I????" on some passive aggressive when did i agree to this.
Putting the "?" is actually simpler than the damn "..." anyway lol
|
12770810, dude, he said "when can i" Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:31 PM
to a question regarding a specific thing. there is no confusion.
|
12770816, he said "when can I..." Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:33 PM
as long as we are being factual.
|
12770845, come on man. Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:53 PM
a capital I and an ellipse really threw you for a loop?
sigh.
|
12770849, of course not. Posted by Cenario, Thu Apr-02-15 02:54 PM
just the ellipsis.
|
12771897, i think there was the rest of a sentence like "when can i pick you up" Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Fri Apr-03-15 04:54 PM
and that is a question, period, no other way to interpret it
|
12770808, i thought i was taking crazy pills Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:30 PM
how are people this dense? lol
|
12770933, I'm saying - what's confusing here? Posted by spades, Thu Apr-02-15 03:40 PM
|
12770750, Dyslexia + text void of punctuation = text communication FAIL Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Apr-02-15 02:05 PM
|
12770789, i am dumbfounded people needed a question mark to understand that Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:24 PM
like, seriously. i can't even deal with this.
|
12770828, cry about it Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 02:39 PM
|
12770846, ^ not the sharpest tool in the shed. Posted by initiationofplato, Thu Apr-02-15 02:53 PM
|
12770891, They call me the hammer Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Apr-02-15 03:18 PM
|
12770864, For all that arguing up top she thought i said when i can Posted by Geah, Thu Apr-02-15 03:02 PM
because she didn't read.
wasn't no ellipses throwing her off, wasn't no confusion. She got dis leck sick and assumed
now we got a tit for tat in here lol..
|

12770928, What's your assessment, second woman in this post? Posted by Numba_33, Thu Apr-02-15 03:36 PM
Dudes flocking to this post because we're bitter and angry or women ignoring this post because they're ignoring any possibility they are capable of being wrong?
|
12770952, his texting sucks Posted by teefiveten, Thu Apr-02-15 03:50 PM

|
12770954, but being she's asking him to do something Posted by teefiveten, Thu Apr-02-15 03:51 PM
she should/could be more proactive
maybe that's just me though. when i am getting a favor i'm extra diligent about the moving parts
|

12770959, I hate how people read into text messages Posted by Kim Jong Trill, Thu Apr-02-15 03:54 PM
only flaw of texting is you can't interpret tone.
all in all, she sounds like she did you a favor
Fuck your fort!
|
12770980, lol Posted by Trinity444, Thu Apr-02-15 04:11 PM
|
12770995, Including the son in the last line makes me laugh everytime Posted by Numba_33, Thu Apr-02-15 04:16 PM
Out of curiosity, were you going to charge her money for these drills or was this going to be something done for free?
|
12771078, Full disclosure Posted by Geah, Thu Apr-02-15 06:15 PM
she pays 35 for an hour of a half court.
I don't charge her I require that her sons have at LEAST 2 other guys with him and charge them Most times its 4 of them
35 35 35
105 for an hour of easy work Twice per week.

12771142, cause dudes will equate wrong with dumb Posted by sosumi, Thu Apr-02-15 08:27 PM
no matter how much they claim dudes like to joke… or that they do not remember, only chicks have such memory… chicks are just dumber or dumberer
