I totally agree. I feel like no one really knows me. I can have such long and detailed discussions within my own thoughts, but they're just not possible in real speech. It's not just what I say, but how I say it. I want to include interesting tonal inflections, to express humour or dramaticism in my speech. But I can't, physically can't.
