How often do you say or write something

and only later realise that it could have been offensive? 😬

From time to time. But maybe more often insensitive than offensive though.

@CrazyMusicLover Yes, I think I understand the difference your mean. 🤔

It's difficult to describe the difference though. 😅

@Classified Insensitive is when you can't really put yourself into the emotional state of another person and give them your advice or opinion that is uncalled for instead of giving them emotional support they search for...but you don't mean any harm. Offensive is usually when you point out someone's features that are generally considered as flaws or undesirable in some way, either as curiosity or to make fun of it. Or when you make fun of topics related to someone else's misery, trauma, etc. That would be both insensitive and offensive, I would say.

@CrazyMusicLover That's quite the skilled explanation. 😃

@Classified At least...that's how I understand it. 😅 Different people get offended by different things so that might not apply to many in the end...

@CrazyMusicLover What you said made sense to me at least. 🤔 So for this conversation it's all good. 😄
