Ha ha, that actually made me smile, in a good way!! I was told off just the other day on facebook by a friend of a friend (so I don't know her) over my grammar. Yep, I have terrible grammar, and on this instant I hadn't written something with the apostrophe. But I don't use facebook or the internet to be worried about grammar etc, I want to relax, it isn't a job interview, nor am I talking to the queen. I am with friends.. I was very amused to be told off, first time since school, at my age!! I like to think in this age of LOL's and WTF's, I am just 'down with the kids' by not caring, grins.

I do think that you may be putting too much importance on his choice of words. He could've been nervous speaking to you, and just wanting to get his words out.. or even if he's simply not a wordsmith, it doesn't mean he might not have a lot to offer you :-)
