billd: I think I understand where you are coming from. I’ve pissed lots of people too, and am often confused as my intention is not to piss them off. On top of that my instinctive emotional perceptions put me in the aspergers category. And when I unintentionally offend people, they are used to other people sensing their annoyance, feeling a bit guilty, and apologizing. Instead when I feel confused, the other person senses I have no empathy for them, often interprets it as arrogance on my part, and gets more upset.

One of my biggest revelations has been that each person is responsible for their own feelings. So I try not to offend other people (while still accepting who I am), and if they get pissed off, it’s not my fault.
