In fact for answering text messages I use my laptop Mac to do a reply using e-mail, save as a draft, access that on my phone, then copy and paste back into the text message. That is far quicker, for me anyway.

As another poster suggested, get yourself a tablet as that might be better.

Also I notice your comments about not getting on too well on here. It takes time, quite a lot of time to 'get to know' people in real life and on here it's just words on a screen so not exactly easy. Just give yourself a chance, take it one step at a time. Mostly there's a good crowd on here, you will no doubt find those you can get along with and those you cannot, that is just how life is.

Carol, it must be difficult at the Aqua Class, to suss out who is thinking what, most folks would just be trying to keep their heads above water.

Re: Being liked.

I don't set out to be liked or disliked, it is important to me just to be the person I am. However, people seem to like to engage with me, I don't seem to be ignored.

You've no doubt heard the saying though "You can choose your friends but not your family!
