> Should I never say anything
Well if you can't understand why your phrasing turns a positive idea into making somebody feel bad, probably.
> Which attitude is that? Optimism?
A version of it, yes. The "if you don't find it easy you are the problem" attitude.
Again, what do you propose I do about it? Should I never say anything positive about anything, lest I offend someone who had a bad experience?
>Your attitude is one I see too often in the FP community
Which attitude is that? Optimism?
