I KNOW that a lot of you use other people to communicate stuff to me. For instance, Person A tells Person B to tell me that he hates me or something like that.
Now I want to make a few things clear:
1) This form of communication is very...ineffective. If you're like Person A, you're just showing me that you're too afraid to confess your words directly. Say it like you mean it! It's the best way to get your point across. For instance, if you hit me and ran away and then told my friend to apologize for you, I would much rather hear the apology from you yourself.
(this method is also ripe for miscommunication)
2) If someone tells you to tell me something or w/e, tell them to try to reach me first. Should that be impossible, then go with the original plan.
3) Suppose you know that this one person did something bad to me and didn't apologize. While I appreciate your help, DO NOT go remind that person. It's up to him/her to realize what he/she has done wrong and apologize to me personally.
If you're wondering, I tend to forgive people who take action themselves much more easily.
