Care to explain?

Do you explain to the best you could so as to prevent any possible misunderstanding?

Or do you simply do nothing even if you foresee people misunderstanding you?

Does it makes a difference as to who the person is when you decide to explain? I believe it does, isn’t it? What for waste our time over people who doesn’t matter at all, right?

I do explain la, although I don’t like to. The difference is, I don’t explain when I’m expected or required to, defiant mah; rather I explain only when I see an absolute need to, or when I’m in a sharing mood la.. Haha.. Arbo?

What about you guys? Why do you explain and what will make you wanna explain?

Not

    er….你那么迟还没睡哦，哈哈…
    我是看情况列，基本上，被无赖的感觉很不好受，也就是硬吃下死猫，不过，对于那些我不怎么管的人，他们说什么，就算不对，我也懒得解释，哈哈，他们要怎样想是她家的事，只是如果是发生在比较在我身边的人，我解释了，他们还是无法谅解，我选择沉默，沉默是最好的反驳方式。

    p/s:我英文差，连中文也不怎么会打了，哈哈，我在干吗？

    Is it about explaining fully to prevent misunderstanding, or is it about explaining after being misunderstood?

    (To Zi Lei) Before? There you know there is this possibility someone will misunderstand you. You can choose to explain to prevent misunderstanding or to say nothing at all.

    Since you brought it up, would you explain after being misunderstood? Or would you simply leave it as it is?

    i do explain at times..and obviously it depends on who the person is la.but there comes to a point in time where.. u’re sick of explaining and you just…don’t bother to even give a damn about it anymore? haha! cant help it but to have that kinda feeling.as long as im very clear of what im doing, that’s it.. i have a reason for it, that’s it. just turn around and say(your lil* voice), “i dont think i owe you any explanation.” =P

    I will explain. Because if I don’t, there might be the possibility that I will be misunderstood, and I will have to spend yet another bigger effort to try and clear the misunderstanding. And if the misunderstanding still cannot be cleared even after my effort, the misunderstanding between me and the other person will always exist. Better safe than sorry.

    If I’m already misunderstood :
    如果解不解释都会有一样的结果（一样都会被人误会），那我宁愿不要解释，因为无论解释得多好，都是白费力气的。

    如果像你说的，误解我的那个人，对我一点也不重要，我也不会解释，因为我不会去理会一个对我不重要的人的想法，他怎么想都不关我的事了。

    如果解释了，那个人不会相信我，反而会产生更大误会，那我不更会去解释，因为再多的解释，只会被误认为是借口。

    但是如果解释，能减少所有之间的误解，那我无论花多少时间，我都会尽力去解释。
