People regularly misinterpret what i say..

...the question is whether that's something I ought to worry about or not!

I always wonder why some people don't understand me. Well, I know they wonder the same thing. I can only hope they'd catch my drift just fine.

Story:
We were leaving at 3 in the morning for DFA: do meet ups for my clients, go to a shipping company and/or pier to get us some tickets boarding @ 4 in the afternoon (or so), and then go home early so that we can go back to the city as early as possible. Nobody but us knew this because aside from our very hectic schedule, our phone was running empty so we had to save the battery by the time we arrive in our province. However, fast crafts' schedule were cancelled due to the disturbing weather, so we had to go back home (2 hours or less away) to fetch our things and our baby girl. We were gonna go back and to catch up but strong winds, heavy rains, muddy culverts, and the television news hindered our plans. I was terribly worried of what they might think of because we wasn't able to make it. I did not have enough cellphone load to call my relatives, good thing there's this guy outside our front gate who volunteered to go and get me some load.

I called and texted everyone to let them know and explain some things. But.. something came up and I said to myself  "I was really gonna give up everything for everyone since I am feeling so overwhelmed for doing them a favor but still, nobody appreciates it." And out of rage (maybe, maybe not), I posted my feelings on my social network wall. I just let it happen, know why?? I just thought I was being so reasonable. End of story!

I look at it this way:
Because I don't impress them anymore, I'd do it on purpose? There is no loss in communication but I know they think of it that way. And I was hoping they would understand me, I feel so concerned about them that is why I am giving up some important things in my life, too.

How people took it:
"Come on, you can't deny that you screwed it up.. then going to play your game was a pretty good plan for a useless girl like you." I think I have had much explaining above. I was able to explain myself and try to straight things out but shheeeeesh...

Is this a never-ending story? Nah. No matter what, I know someone usually get it in the end (am I a lunatic if I believe this?).
