I dont know if there was a topic about this.. but just saying I'm a grammer freak.
I just read my soon to be ex bf's love letter and the FIRST thing I noticed was the puncuation and grammar.
he spelled NERVISE [NERVOUS] wrong. he forgot 2 question marks and 2 commas and 1 period. He has a run-on sentence and this sentence doesn't make sense.
IS THAT JUST WRONG!? It's a love note.. Dude.. And I notice the grammar/puncuation first. *Cries* IS THAT WRONG?!

Oh man. I hate when people spell things wrong just so they can type/write faster. Like when people type/write the word "lyke" it pisses me off. Ok, I'm done. mellow.gif

i agree. when there is a lot, that is when it would like take my attention from the love letter or whatever it is and get me annoyed. but i think it's okay that you are a grammar freak =) lol

At least he put some kind of thought into it. Its harder to string sentences together than just to give you fragments of what he feels. Meh. Think about it.

I probably didn't spot all the mistakes there, but then again, I'm not so wise at grammar neither.

I can see why you would worry about grammar if it was for an essay, but this is a note from your soon to be ex-boyfriend. I sincerely doubt he cares about the grammar so that's proabably why he didn't do a spell check.
