    With your command of (or honestly, lack of) the English language, you'd better take any man that will have you because you write like an ignorant fool.

      That's not very nice. Perhaps English isn't her first language.

        Exactly this. But some people just like to act like big important people, rather than actually thinking about others.

        Maybe when others are multilingual, then they can criticise the 'lack of' English skills of others who are.

        " let's call an apple an apple, poor"
        I'd bet dollars to donuts that she is American, if she is using the saying above.
        And anyway, there are plenty of translation programs available, and let's face it birdy, this is a written communication media. Using it properly just facilitates communication, improperly confounds it.
        Does English have to be your first language to turn on a spellchecker, for christ's sake?
        Nice, smice; it's all about communication, don't you think?

          Actually...she's from a tropical island in the indian ocean. While this is written communication media, I think as long as they are able to get the point across, its fine. Its a hell of a lot better than txt spk. I actually like reading things the way people who speak differently type it.

        It's true that sometimes I literally translate from french to english. I should be more careful next time.

          I don't see it as big deal at all. I never had a problem understanding your comments, and I doubt anyone else does. Keep on keeping it real, woman!

      A slight mistake on a website isn't really a deal breaker when it comes to a relationship though is it?

        That's up to you.
        You can be with somebody that challenges you, is interesting to talk to and has opinions based on thoughtful inquiry or you can become completely bored and disillusioned, being with an ignorant fool.
        Perhaps I was a bit harsh on kelili, but it gets so frustrating to constantly be barraged with poorly written and ignorant posts. Seriously, how fucking hard is it to turn on a spell checker?

          I've read quite a few of kelili's comments as i'm on here a bit and i'm interested in what she has to say and add to the IIN community and again someone making mistakes is not a sign of ignorance what about people such as myself who can't use spell check (xbox internet) plus half the time I'm on IIN i'm paying half attention texting or watching tv or just really tired. I just think we have two different opinions on what ignorance is

          Dude, you've been more than harsh.

          She is NOT a native English speaker and is also one of the nicest and most genuine people on here with something useful to say.

          I'd forgive a slight misuse of the English language long before I'd forgive being a black hole of negativity.

          You sound like the victim of a bad divorce or two.

          Adjust your attitude and duck next time before you come about.
