We all do text messaging. It’s easy because we can send it right away but somehow it’s not easy because receiver might get context wrong. Since there is no sound or voice, something wrong can happen when people don’t read between the lines. I often e-mail my father so does he. He lives out of town so this is one of the best ways that I can contact him. It works and this was considered as ‘good enough system’ for between my father and me. We know who we are better than others do. Very very well. However things happened. Last night he came Seoul yet he didn’t look okay. The way he talked me was agressive and strong. I asked myself weather I did something rude or not. Nothing was wrong as far as I thought. I couldn’t understand what’s going on.

 This morning he started to talk to me.  I’ve got to know that there was super duper huge “misunderstanding” as my father got a text message sent from me. I totally didn’t mean what he has understood but he was mad at me few days ago I don’t even know exactly. “You know me then you couldn’t get this wrong dad” I said. Unfortunately, he was disappointed at me because what he has read was not like me. It was kind of too late to have happy talk for Sunday morning.

Have you ever experienced  ”I-didn’t-mean-it” situation because of mute media such as e-mails and text messages?
