2024/12/25 We prefer to be spoken with as opposed to spoken to. We can sometimes overlook the difference and know certain others can, too. When we feel were being spoken to, we can interpret whats being conveyed as a lecture or have reason to believe someone is too intent on making their point to care about whether or were absorbing their every word. Its important you make an effort to speak with someone now. Speaking to them wont come close to achieving a desired result.
