Communicating what you heard helps prevent unnecessary offense, especially when remarks are unintentionally hurtful. Apologizing and clarifying your intentions when someone feels offended fosters understanding and prevents walls from forming between you. Effective communication is key to maintaining healthy relationships and resolving misunderstandings.
Communication Over Offense
When we expect a certain response from a friend and they don't meet our expectations, we may take offense and begin building fences in our relationship. However, holding onto offense only distances us further. Communicating openly about our feelings allows for understanding and reconciliation, fostering healthier connections.
