No need to apologize, though I have a separate idea. . .
I think that talking honestly to people is a great fantasy that we have. Not only that, but when we have great ideas, it is wonderful to throw them out in your head in a conversation. . . you speak eloquently. . . the other person doesn't talk, they just hear you out.
In reality people are quite rude and interrupt you and question you and don't let you get to your points. . . or you feel threatened by their presence and stammer on your words.
