Yep. I'm hopeless with spoken language, and I'm a writer. :roll:

I had not considered this, specifically. It is so true. While I can speak well about intellectual concepts, if I attempt realtime emo commo I simply cannot. The misunderstandings abound.

So I rarely try. Not that I care much about emos anyway.

I don't consider myself a fast thinker, and I note I don't have the creativity in speech other people have, so I prepare my speeches beforehand, and when I can't make a good reparty I spend time thinking about it after the talk, and try to remember it for the next fitting situation (although that is hard). Overall I feel more comfortable with writing.
