Thanks for the apology and for the later post on validation.
I appreciate both!
Please know that I wasn't trying to beat you up.
Also note that I took responsibility for MY reaction (letting you know that I thought I personalized things, too).
Here's a good opportunity for us...
You heard my feelings You apologized and responded I'm acknowledging your apology but also letting you know I take responsibility too.
NOW...let's avoid runaway thinking on both sides, ok?
We're fine. You handled the situation beautifully. You can take a bit of this to use "next time" and I will too.
What I'm indirectly suggesting is don't take this sitch and RUN with it or spin on it. We did the "right" communication thingy and now we can move on...know what I mean?
