when you are upset, do you prefer the listening ear to say "I understnd how you feel" or "I can't imagine how you must feel" or something to that effect?
The fact is, the former is the truth, and I recieved a very defensive remark back when using it, because this person couldn't see that.
this sounds selfish, maybe, but now Im wondering what most people prefer... the person to understand, or not?
I like to be understood ; )
