listen carefully
I.
If you don't know
something is a
question,
then how do you
know to ask it?
Ii.
it isn't that you don't
understand that's a
problem
It's that others don't
understand that you
don't understand
that is the problem
III
when someone says
to you,
" Don't you think that."
they are not asking
you what you think,
they are TELLING
YOU what to THINK!

Yes, true. It's called talking at people or talking but not listening. Happens all the time.

Linguistic arm-twisting can be such a bugger sometimes, especially to the unwary. But so true what you wrote.

As someone who has been trying not to be a passive aggressive number 3 made more sense to me now. It's just always better to be direct but empathetic, too many times folks will beat around the bush and the message gets lost.
Nicely done.
