Scenario

When long-distance couples get trapped in text message conflicts

We keep fighting over text about things that would be five-minute conversations in person and by the time we get on a call to resolve it we're both defensive about positions we don't even really hold. The medium is poisoning the message but we can't have every conversation face-to-face.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Communication tools shape the conflicts they carry, creating battles over phantom positions rather than real differences.
