Being emotional

When I don’t see eye to eye, I end up interpreting words that would otherwise be harmless. I have thought a lot of times, how does one overcome this effect, to understand what the other means, but have found it impossible at times, for there is no mechanism to get into the shoes of the other. I have faltered in my attempt at this, and may have aggravated the situation, to the extent of antagonising the other person or party. At times a sincere effort to sort the things out can also lead to dissatisfaction. I sit back and ponder, "Does love, emotions, feelings make one weaker" ? For its when you think in these terms, you try to go the extra mile, and that is what causes the above effect. Ah at times I do ask myself why do I really think so much, but I realised, I haven’t changed much, and wouldn’t and would someday again ask this question, albeit in some other format, but it does not absolve me of the need to apologise to the antagonised, apologise not for trying to go to the extra bit, but for the unwanted result.
