Everything you say is misconstrued through some lens over which you have no control.

example:

Me: Hey do you want to go for a walk when you are done what you are working on?

Them: Why are you always so critical of how long things take?

Me: What. The. Fuck?

Me: when you're ready let's do the thing we'd agreed we wanted to do around now.

Them: okay. (drops everything)

Me: okay...I knew you're in the middle of something, I can wait 5 minutes.

Them: ugg, no, its fine let's just go now.

(Later with someone else)

Them: Ugg, I always feel rushed to do things with [me].

Other: you know he'll will wait for you right, its not a big deal.

Them: I know, but I feel bad. I dont like wasting his time...(he doesn't have a lot of it left).
