Is my very poor English a reason for not liking me?

I can't spell very well. It's always been a problem of mine.

I can't spell very well either but I have found that nobody really cares.

My English teacher does...

Hannah, your English is technically excellent. You have nothing to fear.

In any case, I merely wince to myself when I come across "your" being used when a writer means "you're" or when someone says that something "could of been" (it should be "could have been"). However, I'm far too polite to say anything about these mistakes.

I never really notice these thing, but then again I seem to be oblivious to a lot of stuff.
Oh well!

what would you say if someone spelled "you are" like "ur"?

That's fine by me. But not in an English essay.

BTW don't take me too seriously. I only put that in my list because I was, at the time, struggling to read something written by a native English speaker that was so poorly constructed and spelt that I was distracted from the meaning of the words.

Allright, it's just that I feel left out if someone says something like that.
(poor little german-speaking me)

Hey, I said that I didn't like poor spelling. I didn't say that I didn't like people who spell poorly.

Anyway, I've taken that bit off my home page now because I've got over it

if u cn rd ths, hurrah!

Of course I can read it. I'm annoyingly fussy but not daft.
