I’m an emoticon whore.

I can’t seem to not use them everywhere.

I do it so people understand my tone for what I’m writing, but sometimes I feel like I’m giving mixed signals / signals that don’t even exist. Awkward for me (cause according to some people, it’s a sign of “flirting” or whatever, but I never mean them in that way. I’m just a very expressive person, and it’s the only way I can convey what I’m feeling through writing).
