The following is an actual Yahoo chat with BB:
BB: hi sexy (1)
Me: hi
BB: how is my girl doing (2)
Me: ok. how are you?
BB: i am good i miss u did u miss me (3)
Me: um (4)
BB: i want here ur voice (5) i really i talk to u on the phone (6)
(1) Sexy? You've seen one tiny grainy pic of me and we've IM'd 4 times. How desperate are you?
(2) I am not "your" girl. I will never be your girl. Which begs the question, why am I even talking to him. Short answer: FT is incommunicado and I'm starved for attention.
(3) How is it possible to miss something you never had? Never even came close to having? And how do I answer "no" without sounding like a complete bitch?
(4) I guess this is how. Say something vague and guttural and let the man interpret it any way he wants.
(5) Am I the only person who gets irrationally annoyed when people can't use the correct version of hear/here?
(6) Holy hell! If he talks anything like he writes I'll have to stick razor blades in my ears just so I don't have to listen to him. Or just never give him my number. That might work too.

Awkward...
With regards to number five, no, you aren't alone. I'm also consistently annoyed by you're/your, there/their/they're, and its/it's. Also, randomly, people who don't know the proper way to conjugate "alum," like someone who has graduated from an institution.
This is why I sit home alone, huh?
I'm with you guys...although I'd probably have a bad speller more so than a guy that pronounces words wrong! :)
He also might be European and his English none so good.
