I was in the breakroom with two of my collegues during work, we were talking. Our conversation was about dogs. One of my collegue started to say with a bit of an angry tone that she was scared of dogs, "the most dangerous owners are the ones that claim to know their dogs", "i cross the street when i see one". She said things like that for a whole minute. I don’t agree with her, but i know some people don’t like dogs, that’s okay. When she was done, i said with a joking tone, aiming to lighten the mood, (maybe that could be interpreted as a mocking her?) "Well, that is to say, you don’t like dogs too well!" And i feel like she exploded on me. "No, like usual, you don’t understand anything". She said. It kinda hurted me and my ego as she was implying i was dumb, i ́m not sure if what i said was rude, but i feel like no, but it could be bias. After that, a bit later, i told her that i didn’t like the way she talked to me. She answered she had to bear me for the whole time i was working here, that i was making jabs at her, that i saw her as bad person (she might be right on that one, i can’t help but find her pretty cruel in her ways of thinking at times), that i liked shit. That’s the whole story. Now i feel like she mistreated me and that she overreacted, but i feel biased thinking this. I've been turning this whole thing in my head for a whole year, not sure of what to think. I have a story of having trouble of discerning criticism from insults as i'm afraid of ignoring valid criticism by convenience. (Please tell me if the text is written in a weird way, i try to improve my written english)
