Normally I'm not one to ask, but...

Can someone please inform me what exactly I did wrong in the following conversations?

Here and here.

To be frank, I have no idea what the hell I'm supposed to be doing with this so-called child.

Oh I know!

...

You were your usual self, that's what you did wrong!

[wind_of_vain]

Excuse me?

[asskickinnymph]

People don't really warm up to you if you call them pathetic right out of the gate, Aeolus.

[wind_of_vain]

My intention was to inspire her to rise above her behavior.

[heart_of_jurai]

*reads entries* Well... that's new...

Well, instead of at least accepting who they were, you pretty much kicked her to the curb.

Wow, congrats. That's the first time I've seen anyone DENY a Brainbreaker. >_>

[wind_of_vain]

... She did not accept who I was. I was trying to get her to accept several undeniable facts.

[heart_of_jurai]

Not everyone is what those children expect them to be and you can't force them to accept what you are now. When I first met mine, I was still a child and the other parent was still weary of who she was.

The best thing you can do is try to find some sort of middle ground.

[wind_of_vain]

And you would rather I hide how I feel? That I pretend my crimes were never committed?

[kenkabanchou]

. . .

Eh, I dunno.

The fact you're kind of an epic douche maaaaaaay have somethin' to do with it.

[wind_of_vain]

And how would you have talked to her, Daimon?

[kenkabanchou]

NOT being an asshole'd be a good start, but I realize that's sorta hard for you.

[wind_of_vain]

...

I was trying to help, as unlikely as that may seem. I am unskilled in interpersonal matters.

...

But.

You may be right.
