Help Can't correct typed words in predictive text

[ChemFreak]

So this is so unbelievably annoying. When I am texting on my galaxy s 3 and complete a word but then move on I cannot go back and put my cursor on the word to get suggested words again. The other galaxy phones that I've owned were able to do this and it made correcting misspelled words on text so much easier. Does anybody know how to fix a this or maybe I am just not knowing of the setting?
