I know what you mean by finding online conversations difficult. I have sometimes sent emails (not necessarily on PC) that have offended people.
I talked to a friend of mine about this who generally hates texting, emailing or online chatting because there is no way we can see from gestures, facial expression, posture, tone of voice, inflection etc. how a comment is meant. These indicators are all missing and it means that there is more room for misinterpretation.
Saying that, I have often misunderstood people face-to-face as well and sometimes found it harder to say things face-to-face, as I had simply lacked the courage.

Peace to you, too, Fuzzy. I hope you're feeling somehow better today!
