I sometimes worry how people take me putting a lot of emojis in my messages... because I do not just do it to convey emotion... I have come to realize my incessant use of emojis is actually a bit of a nervous tick... My brain thinks I need to put a cute little c: to make sure nothing gets taken the wrong way or putting a little >.> to try and be funny.

So if anyone sees me using a lot of emojis at times, I am probably being my shy, insecure little self who wants people to feel comfortable talking to her. >.>


hey man use as many emojis as you need to say what you're saying and dont let no one stop you!!! >:DDDDD

what do you want to know? my height, hobbies, quirks, the color of my underwear?
it's honestly such a turnoff to know that swsh actually has less pokemon in the game than they do ones they purposefully excluded from the games

(it's also really annoying from an rp standpoint because those sprites are really nice but knowing there's only about 430 of them is majorly disappointing - even using the pogo sprites gives you about 640 of them and it's the same style, just a bit smaller)

this just gave me war flashbacks.

i will never forget how this whole dumbass misinterpreted me using a lot of emojis as being mean or being shady. like, no you fuckin' clown, i use emojis 2 show u that i'm not being mean or mad. i use them 2 lighten the conversation so ur dumbass doesn't misinterpret what i'm typing and assuming i'm being a jerk or something, b/c ppl have a habit of making that assumption and tend to forget that what u type =/= equal how u feel.

literally was trying 2 explain something and thought using emojis would help lighten the explanation b/c i knew they would misinterpret what i was saying. only for them 2 end up crying and doing it anyway and having 2 find out that they bitched 2 their friends and made an assumption that i was being mean/condescending?? no u sensitive ass clown that is the literal opposite of what i wanted u 2 do/think. how tf---

i do understand where you're coming from but perception is a complicated thing. sometimes i find that people using a ton of emojis (especially the upside down smiling one) can seem really passive aggressive and some emojis like uwu can come off as smug? and in general, just using a lot of emojis can be read as intimidating. for example zzz or  :) :) :) :)  is pretty intense whereas a row of heart emojis is cute. 

i personally don't really care if people use a ton of emojis but everyone's different. obviously this might not apply to your exact situation bc i don't know what happened there and what the situation was about, but it's pretty reasonable for people to be intimidated or put off by seeing a lot of emojis in a message. maybe the person you were talking to just misread your intentions but they wouldn't be wrong for doing that in this context.
