Mr. Snippy

in #freewritelast month

I thought I was encouraging him and was happy to hear he was ready to take help with his project that he has been working on.

But when I wrote, "Happy to hear this is getting off the ground."

He became angry and replied, "Getting off the ground. I've been doing this for forty five years."

Evidently misunderstanding that I was referring to his getting help. When I explained to him what I meant by getting off the ground he became even angrier. I asked him why he got so angry. And became defensive when I meant no harm.

He replied, "I get snippy when people make snippy edged remarks."

I could see there was no possibility of friendly communication. He only wanted to fight and argue.

I'm gone.
