Yes you did.

Saying something in a forum means you had a reason to say it. You may think you're "being reasonable" or "just calming the situation", but you're asserting. You are carving a place in opposition to another person.

You can't have it both ways. You can't tell someone how they feel or need to react is invalid then walk away without expecting a response.

You didn't know that you asked for something. You still asked for it. Now take off your mask of feigned indifference and listen.
