Is there any way to discuss another poster's motives without there being at least some possibility of that person feeling accused or put down? Moreover, aren't you making assumptions about my motives that might make me feel accused or put down as well?People wouldn't necessarily, but could feel accused of being selfish. It can be hard to discuss someone else's motives in a way that feels supportive to them. I don't think I made any assumptions about your motives, do you think I did?
