Do you ever use emoticons in conversations with people just not to seem emotionally retarded?

Yes. Why do I continue to talk to those normalfags if they probably don't even like me and just keep me around out of pity.
>>37990352
What do you mean, something like, "I really like your new glasses dude, colon caret close parenthesis!"
Seems a bit autistic to me

Emoticons or Emojis?
>>37990352
Yeah i use emojis all the time when talking to girls to seem likeable.. they just see through it anyway
I use emojis occasionally. I like the ones that Snapchat has because they've got cute dogs and shit.
What I like doing is using the imessage feature where you can have obnoxious animations paired with your messages. It's funny to me

Not once in my life. I do not understand emoticons.
I use the avocado emotes on kik sometimes
I only use emotes for ironic shitposting
I send emojis to my mom, she likes them
she's the only person I talk to so I guess
Emoticons are my entire personality.
I do it to add emphasis to what I'm saying or seem more light-hearted so others don't misinterpret what I write. I often see that one of the one-eyed tongue-sticker-outer and I have no fucking idea what it means. Fuck normies.
Emoji's look really dull and stupid, but emoticons are a bit more creative if used properly.

I know this feel.
ghosted them all. doubt they care. but it's good to have some self respect.
No. They usually stop using them with me after they realize I won't abide, and learn to spell full words instead of infant babble ... ever talk to a person who used "you" and "U" interchangably depending on how much respect for you they have at the time? It's spoopy.
I overuse emoticons on messengers, it changes the tone of your messages.
I went through the autistic don't use emoticons phase too, it's just better this way. You don't even have to think about your responses, just use the thinking or crying while laughing emoticon if you're unsure how to respond.
>>37990352
yes and this makes me ashamed of myself. Shame on me, shame on my ancestors
>>37990352
control yourself.

Stacey's love emoticons, the whole "le no emoticons only un emotional alpha" meme needs to die
:^) is based.

>emoticons
Oh wow, current year
>>37990352
No, I feel too uncomfortable using them. It's not like I have anyone to talk to anyways
>>37993707
I typed "lol" one time to someone for exactly this reason and then they asked me why did I laugh and I didn't have a response.
