Sometimes we hear people talk about things around us and we misunderstand what they are saying and of course they do misunderstand us too, this has happened to me in so many circumstances when people just quote me out of context and start abhorring annoyance and anger against me, its funny that I may not even know sometimes, I do misunderstand people too but if I realize this I usually will ask for clarification, has this ever happened that somebody misunderstood you? How did you resolve it?

This happens to me several times, I always make it a point to clear it out right away. By talking to the person on the phone or personally! It might lead to trouble if it will not be corrected besides, if I can't make it to clear our, I can't sleep and this will bother me or ruin my day!

It's hard to read their mind. and if ever one will misunderstood me and tell me nothing about it, I will not also care! not until the time, they will brought it up and will take some effort to clarify things!

I am constantly misunderstood by people. I have to explain things over and over again to people but they still do not know where I am coming from or what I am talking about. I do not know how to resolve it either.

sometimes when this happens i just stop trying to explain and let them figure out what am saying if its important enough to them they usually ask for clarification
