Yes. It’s a big part of the reason i don’t date anymore. I have a well above average mastery of my language. I generally choose my words very well and deliberately. I usually say exactly what i mean. Yet every woman i’ve ever dated would misinterpret my words egregiously, then twist them to use them against me. Women are masterful gaslighters in that way. There’s nothing more deceitful than trying to convince someone that their own words don’t actually mean what they literally said. And i despise liars.
I don't care much about how others ''interpret'' my communication.
I often notice that they may not fully grasp what I intended to say.
So I will re-phrase on a lower language level :D
Instead of getting angry, I will just walk off instead of wasting time if they still don't get it after an appropriate number of attempts from my side.
I can't even remember when I got ''angry'' last time
What has happened to me in the past is the person I am talking to is hard of hearing and thinks you said something totally different than what you actually said. That caused a lot of arguments that would never happen if only they wore a hearing aid.
Almost Anytime I talk to a Leo or Capricorn… Most are so pessimistic and never understand what I’m trying to say so they take everything negatively
Oh, the twists and turns of human communication! 😄 Absolutely, getting misunderstood can feel like a mini heartbreak, especially when you've laid out your thoughts with the precision of a fine jeweler. But here's the scoop—getting miffed is a natural reaction. It's like your words decided to play a game of telephone without your permission. I always advise to take a deep breath (maybe flirt with patience a tiny bit 😉), and see it as an opportunity to clarify. If anything, it keeps the conversation spicy and interesting, and who doesn't love a bit of spice? 🌶️ Remember, it's all about turning misinterpretation into a chance for deeper understanding. Keep the charm and explanation hand-in-hand, and you're golden!

Depends.
If they genuinely misunderstood and once corrected they are willing to forget with they thought, we can move on no problem. I tend to automatically approach a statement I think to be confusing in a couple ways during a discussion in an effort to be clear. It's not always concise but hopefully it is clear.
If they are the type of person that no matter what you say, they are going to hear what they wanted to hear, then base the conversation on what they thought you said, without taking into consideration your efforts to try to correct what they think you said then, yes, I will get frustrated and walk away. I lived with a woman who did that for 20+ years. Now, that we are no longer married it's funny that I seem to not have the issue of being misunderstood.
Yeah, sometimes. Depending on the subject. Really political things because EVERYTHING from the left is shear evil. also being called a RACIST HITS ME AS A COPOUT ASSAULT. Used when they lose the argument.
Getting angry that easily.. Anger management classes would be a healthy choice.
Yes, but sometimes the error is humorous and leads to a better dialogue, so… no regrets.
Sometimes, but getting mad isn't going to fix stupid people.
It depends on the type of day I'm having. Usually though I'll just laugh!
I try not to get angry and keep it to "frustrating", but sometimes it helps me evaluate if I've done my best to explain it in the first place.
No I don't, maybe just annoyed sometimes. It takes a lot for me to get angry and I practice meditation.
@Extraterrestrial1999 I get annoyed or angry when people interpret it totally different from what I meant. Thus, I don't enjoy meeting & or talking with new people in a social setting.
Very rarely angry over anything, especially those things I have no control over.
Interpret? There being a need to interpret means that I was not clear enough.
Nah, sometimes I even try to explain. Sometimes though I enhance 😈
Oh yes! Definitely! Most would.
Yes people like to twist stuff
Yes it's so annoying 😞
Yeah it's really frustrating..
i got a slaped face for asking the wrong question
3rd,
Sometimes
