[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. It is not everyone misinterpreting everything I say. Fir instance, my DH rarely misinterprets me.[b] It’s a couple friends and in a past job I had this problem as well[/b] (not in my current job).

But this conversation has gone much the way I’m talking about, with some posters making broad assumptions about my motives and experience that you couldn’t possibly get from what I said.

I think my biggest frustration is people making assumptions and then acting on them, when if they’d simply asked a question or two, the misunderstanding could have been avoided. It feels like with some people, you get one chance to express something and if they interpret it incorrectly, too bad, that’s the truth for them now.[/quote]
I think I see the issue. You exaggerate and then when it’s pointed out, you backtrack.

Your OP should have clearly stated this only happens with a couple of friends instead of stating it happens often.[/quote]

Where in my OP did I say everyone misunderstands me? I said I feel Ike people misinterpret me. I never said all people, just people. I’m not backtracking, you just misinterpreted me and now want to argue facts to suit you, but I didn’t change the facts. You simply made some stiff up and decided it must be the case.

This is precisely the sort of thing I’m talking about! It’s so aggravating.[/quote]

Your title says "perpetually." That means constantly, on an ongoing basis, without end. [/quote]

OP's follow up is clarifying -- the fact that you are refusing to understand her despite her clarification just kind of illustrates her point.[/quote]

She chose the title, which is part of the post. I had nothing to do with that.[/quote]

And if she does in fact run around using words like “perpetually” when she means “some of the time, by a few but not all people”—well, we have found the problem.[/quote]
Something can happen perpetually but with just a few people. [/quote]
Then it would have been said in the OP. Instead, when it was rightfully pointed out that the OP doesn’t communicate clearly, she all the suddens claims the issue is only with a small group of people. Which just demonstrates that she doesn’t communicate clearly.[/quote]

I think OP just wants to be told people around her are the problem and it’s not her. I think, though, the possibility that these unrelated people are not all misinterpreting her should be explored. [/quote]

I think you just enjoy criticizing OPs, of literally any thread, and are also taking a bit of pleasure in trolling someone who has just said "I feel perpetually misunderstood" by... intentionally misunderstanding them.

OP is not the only one here with a problem.[/quote]
