[randomness]

Why is it that well-meaning people fail to understand when people have issues, even emotional landmines, about certain subjects, and still keep banging on about them.

Are they simply clueless? Do they not listen? Or is it that they say things so they can hear themselves talk? What?

I had a roommate who once said to me in anger, "I'm tired of tiptoeing around your issues."

And you know, it *wasn't* nice, but she was right. In the end, I'm glad she said it to me.

That's really all I have to say about this, I guess. I can see both sides, and so generalizing on this point seems dangerous. Some people are crazy inconsiderate. Some people have unreasonable issues.
