Mindful of centring on other's posts.

@TAB,

I've opened a new thread as it seemed more appropriate. I have hurt you, and I am sorry.

I am very mindful of my tendencies to talk over others, to get lost in myself and forget other's are talking.

I am wondering if quoting the post I was replying to helped with context more, and leaving out my specific experiences? Did that centre the thread back onto the original poster more?

I appreciate your feedback. X
