Well, let me rephrase myself... The words 'Don't mean to offend ' or whatever usually come afterwards with me, cause I do have a habit of opening my mouth and speaking words before I think of my consequences and a lot of the time I don't try to offend people. I am not normally a people person, I do talk with people... But It isn't my preferred method of... Communication. Heh, I rather use the computer. Unless I know the person for ages or we connect in some fashion that makes talking to them in person easier.
The worst thing i find to talk with people through is the phone, something about the voice being disconnected is unnerving to me (Well, I guess that comes from being at least half deaf -- my right ear has no bones in it so the ear drum doesn't vibrate like it should -- so I rely a lot of my communications via talking with body language and facial expressions....)
