something i have always advised against is having a serious conversation in an online chat. you say things more freely because you're looking at a computer and not at a human being, it's just not ...

so the only place you should have a serious conversation is like the phone?

the phone isnt bad, but you still can feel safe saying things you may not mean. it's always better to have a serious conversation face to face

Yeah, you get to see the expression on their face when your talking about serious stuff...unless you have video confrencing that could work too, but still its better to see them person to person...

yeah in person usually works better but you cant always see someone in person so i prefer the phone if anything. Online is just dumb for real serious stuff...
