Do you consciously think about what the correct way to communicate is before you communicate something in an informal setting? If so I'd imagine you're an outlier. For most people I would assume they don't think about this at all and do whatever feels most natural.
- watwut 8y agoYes I do, especially when the situation is new or weird in some way. Altrought often it happens after and I use different phrasing next time similar situation happens (e.g. I thing offline about how I told things and what happened after). I don't think I am outlier, because most people talk differently in front of different groups and also because I am more impulsive then most. In context of study as described in article, I would think about way I talk in advance. If asked to analyze situation, I would do some social situation guess to determine whether to talk about relationships, tech, whether use experience or go strictly by text. How I want to look like and which part of me I want to hide/keep secret would be a factor. The "feels natural" part is influenced by your previous experiences too, naturally.
