My partner ES made me a cup of coffee. I put it on the table and kept on working on my pc and forgot all about the coffee. When I realised it has gone cold. My first reaction was oh I forgot about my coffee... meaning my coffee has gone cold and I have not drunk it. For me it is straight forward and no hidden meaning.
ES answered you don't have to drink it if you don't want to. Should I be upset and be defensive? I did get upset because of his respond. His respond to my understanding is you didn't forget to drink it, you just didn't want to drink it and I am unhappy because I made the coffee for you. I would have preferred with a respond like 'you left it too long' or 'heat it in the microwave'.
I know I shouldn't be upset because his respond was as straight forward as mine and yet I felt hurt and upset.
A sign of aging or was I always like that? hmmm... nothing to do with age, I guess. :-)
