    I dont get why the way the I talk, but often I would say something with good intentions and I end up hurting someone. If I do not talk, people think I dont give a fuck.

    Do we speak the same language
    What the fuck,
    Fucking hell.

    I speak with few words and have a quick wit. It comes off cutting at times.

    Try communicating without words.
    Give hugs!

    Hey, I have almost the same problem.

    Most people don't understand whatever the hell it is I'm trying to convey...

    .....I don't understand it half the time either.

    i changed your title to a more specific one. please remember in the future that thread titles must be at least fairly specific... things like "ouch" really arent. :)

    Great movie that one.

    I use lots of body language and my face is very expressive, it helps.

    Just try to be more selective in words... first think how you are going to put it, then say...
    and yeah... mimics is a good means

    I think it might be more simple to just shut the fuck up and smile. Acceptance of my <so-called-hurting-communication>
