after my break up with D, i met a good guy from this site...we get along well by talking online almost everyday but because of some circumstances i think i made him mad and misunderstood me......why it is so hard to explain my side without making him to feel bad about it...(communication gap? or is it because I'm a filipina?)Why is it so hard to understand other people?

It's hard to communicate in type because voice inflections, body language, etc is non-existent. So it's easy to get confused by what someone types.

Ask him if you can call him and explain orally. It's worth the few bucks if you like him that much.

misunderstandings via internet happen all the time...there will be less misunderstandings via face to face

Yeah, i agree. A phone call or meeting would be a good way to smooth things over.

Sometimes misunderstandings are just that and blow over. Sometimes misunderstandings are mole hills made into mountains because it is and excuse to exit a relationship someone no longer wants.

If you have significant cultural differences it may play a role in the exit but it is more likely he just wasn't that into you and thought it would be a rebound fling that you wouldn't take seriously.

Best case will for you to make yourself as strong and happy as you can on your own and then you will be the best half of a relationship so people will be pursueing you rather than the other way around.
