How to stop writing emails that are misunderstood
Use the phone.
If you are truly having trouble with a friend or are having a difficult time expressing yourself, skip trying to email and instead pick up the phone.
Send a quick email to the recipient that you'd like to chat by phone instead of email.
Be honest about why you'd prefer to talk on the phone. Tell your friend that you may be having a hard time expressing yourself via email and would prefer to talk.
