No, but I'd make an effort to teach them the correct way. A lack of knowledge IMO is no reason not to date someone. People can always learn. But if they're not learning for a reason, on purpose, I might take a step back and find out why they aren't willing to better themselves. THAT might make me decide otherwise on the relationship.
-
If I were still dating, yes. That would be a serious problem.
-
No - I like to teach.
-
I am a grammar nazi. I could never date someone who confused the most common of homophones.
-
Only if I was confused between should've and Should of.
-
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!!!! DUMBA**!!! AHAHAAHAAH...AHA.. awhoo... Anyway, no, i would not. What a fricken retard....
-
I would consider dating that person if: - There were many other redeeming qualities - She was willing to learn (and intelligent) - She didn't speak English and thus didn't know the difference
-
I doubt I would know whether he knew that or not before I dated him. What would I do? Give every guy who showed any interest in me a written exam? Silly. And even if I did know, I wouldn't make my choice based on that. (Although, if the relationship did proceed I may end up eventually correcting him and trying to teach him the difference.)
-
Nein, dit eez verbotten :-p
-
No, I would teach them the difference.
-
It wouldn't stop me dating them but it'd irritate the hell out of me and I'd correct them every single time they made the mistake.. and with every time they made the mistake their punishment would get more serious! x
-
i really wouldnt care at all.
-
Well I have dated people with poor written english in the past but i have to say i probably wouldn't do it in the future.......I would prefer someone who can express themselves in written english quite well. It's just more appealing, that's all.
-
Yeah because if they said can we go back to you're house what they're really saying is 'you are ' house and I don't have anyone saying I look like a house.
-
Your kidding? Lovẹ you're question, anyway...
-
you're standards are too high; id say your being ridiculous...although i have too say two you, to many times i have been the same way
-
I probably should have...
-
Not really. Although grammatical errors of that type can bother me sometimes, its not enough to keep me from dating someone that I truly like.
-
Not at all..the question seems rather snobbish, supercilious and patronizing...perfect grammar, knowledge of word meanings, and perfect spelling do not a good human being make...don't you know that? Some very brilliant people, geniuses, can't spell worth a hoot...does that make them "less than" you? Come on...what are your imperfections? Just because you know the difference, do you think that exalts you in some way?
-
No I'd still date them. But it would annoy me lol.
-
I've tried, and it didn't work. Though it wasn't a "deal breaker" or anything, it was the tip of the iceberg of a range of incompatibilities in interests and intellect.
-
Schiebe (Pron. Schiser) :-P
-
Your kidding about you're question right? Sure, but I would teach them.
-
While it would annoy me I would inform them the difference. If that was their only problem I wouldn't mind so much, we all have flaws and that is one I would choose to accept.
-
Yes I would. I have to teach the difference though.
-
It depends if it's a typo or knot.
-
I sure wood. heheh
-
No. I might teach the person the difference, though.

Who gives a flying banana? GEEZE! We don't WRITE each other on dates, and with texting now, most people don't even SPELL everything out (it would be Ur and go by context). And when we were IMing, before we married, my wife used commas (,,,) for elipses (...) and apostrophes. But I could understand everything she wrote. Heck... I'm a writer of songs, poems, a few stories, pages for websites, etc., and it sure doesn't bother me that much how she spells, her grammar, or anything else. In fact, I like the way she talks... That's part of what drew me to her in the first place. (We IM'd, then phoned each other before we ever met in person.)
