I am much better in person than any message I have ever sent

- Experience
- Four years, both directions, two short things that ended by text.

- the north zone, Rio de Janeiro
I am not good at this part. My messages are short and they come out flat, and I have been told twice that I seemed uninterested when I was in fact rewriting the same three lines for half an hour.
Thirty one, north zone, switch, four years. In person I am the opposite. I talk a lot, I laugh at everything, and people generally decide within ten minutes that I am fine. Both of the things I have had started because somebody met me anyway despite a first message that must have read like a form.
So what I am asking for is a coffee early. Not because I want to rush anything, but because the written stage is the stage I am worst at and every extra week of it makes me look worse than I am.
What I want is something long and even. Both directions, no strong preference, protocol on both sides and nothing heavy. I would like it to be with somebody nearby, because I am in the north zone and I am realistic. I live with my brother, so hosting is difficult, and I am free most evenings and Sundays.
Not looking for anybody who wants weeks of messages first, because I will lose them by attrition. Not looking for a person who will read the short replies as coolness. Not looking to be corrected about how I write, which somebody did, at length.
