Mostly wrong, because I wasn't Talking About You (tm) per se, but about how I approach asking people generally.
Granted that it wasn't specifically about me, nor did I think it was actually.
you and patgreene both tell me "no" on a variety of things, with some frequency, and I don't fall to pieces afterward.
Well, this is a good thing. =) You seem to be saying elsewhere though that you don't disclose any inconvenience that you may be dealing with to the person who's asking you for something, so it could probably be understandable if I also figured that you would generally also hide any disappointment from the person who turns you down. I'm glad to hear that's not the case.
