You always accuse me of being rude. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what it was I said that WAS rude...
just some guy,
I've been watching this thread unfold and the one thing that has not been touched on and yet best describes the problem is your lack of tact in expressing yourself. You see, the problem was not so much WHAT you said, but HOW you said it. One of the things I respect most in people is their honesty because it lets me know exactly where they stand, but if they shove it in my face and force it down my throat, then I lose all respect for them.
So by all means, be honest with yourself and us, but try to do so tactfully and I'm sure we're less likely to run into situations like this again.
