Remember the game "Telephone" where people whisper into each others ear, then pass on what they thought they heard and it turns out to be something totally different than what was actually said?
I'm offering this spread to provide some understanding when a situation like this is clearly happening... either you say something and the other responds in a very confusing way, or you are responding strongly to something someone else says they never intended.
The shape of the spread is (very loosely) meant to look like a phone - the old, non cell variety.
I hope someone can get some use out of this!
Telephone Spread
. . . 3 1 4
. 2 . . . . . 5
. . . .6 . 7 . .
1. The Situation/Confrontation - what motivated the discussion
2. What A was trying to say.
3. What A actually said.
4. What B heard A say.
5. How B reacted to what B thought was said.
6. Advice for clearing up the confusion.
7. Outcome
