I wish you wouldn't say that. I don't care if people's opinions disagree with me, all I've ever asked, ever, is that people can say whatever they want about what they think as long as they don't phrase it like they're telling me what to do. It just kind of hurts when people say they have opinions but they're not going to share them, because if you're going out of your way to say you have something to say but you're not going to say it, I don't understand that. I've never cared if people share their opinions, I get accused of that all the time but I don't want people to not share their opinions with me, I just don't want people to say "you should do THIS" or "You're missing the point" or anything like that. I don't think it's that hard to say "I feel this way" or "I think" and say it that way instead of acting like you're trying to change the other person's mind.
Um...instead of jumping on my back, you might have asked why I was eating my opinions.
At the time, I would have been INCREDIBLY long winded...and I wasn't in the mood to be such. It had nothing to do with not wanting to share my opinion with you.
I wasn't jumping on your back, I said I wish you wouldn't say that you have something to say but you're not going to say it, because that hurts me and makes me scared about what you were going to say in the first place. It does; I have really bad anxiety about it because of things that have happened throughout my life. We've talked about that before. I'm sorry it sounded like I was jumping on you, I don't want to do that to anyone.
You HAVE told me, over and over and over, that you have advice to give, but you're not going to give it. Or you have something to say, but you're not going to say it. Or you have an opinion, but you're not going to say it. We've been around the bend on this one more than once, I told you that it hurts my feelings and also sounds snippy and immature when you say that, and we've left it at that, but when it sounded like you were doing that again, it DID deserve the comment you got back. If you've told me over and over that something hurts your feelings and I say it again, I expect you to get snippy because you're human. You apparently don't extend me the same courtesy. So we have a situation here. When I saw you say again "I have something to say but I'm eating my opinions," sorry that I didn't read your mind and know exactly what you meant, but I wasn't going to be able to read your mind and know what you were talking about, so I snapped at you for saying it and hurting me again even when we'd discussed this before. Then you

Other than that, I'm eating my opinions, lol.
