I don't want to stress you, but I dont think you read that last bit I wrote correctly.

If a 'backhanded compliment' is an insult disquised as a compliment, then a 'reverse backhanded compliment' would be a compliment disguised as an insult.

I incorrectly wrote 'backhanded compliment' in my first response to what you said, but what I _meant_ was reverse backhanded compliment - a compliment disguised as an insult.

not that it's important, and I'm gonna drop it after this, but it felt like you still thought I was saying you had insulted me, and obviously you hadn't.

saying I am too logical and need to lower my standards is high praise, especially in gfy.
