just now i was replying to an email where someone was accusing me of doubting something they had said. well, i did doubt it, but didn't want to take it any further, so i wrote 'i do not doubt what you have said'. just as i hit 'send', i noticed i had omitted the 'not'. so i sent another reply saying 'the last reply should have said "i do NOT doubt...". lucky i noticed it, or you would have got the wrong idea'. just as i hit 'send', i noticed that instead of 'wrong' i had typed 'right'.

Originally posted by Sunburntwell, i don't doubt this person in the sense of thinking they are outright lying, i just think they're exaggerating a bit. if i am not being honest it is in the same way that men know that the right answer to the question 'do these jeans make me look fat?' from their girlfriend is 'no, dear', while they're thinking 'it's your fat that makes you look fat'. in the real world, as opposed to internet forums, you sometimes need to take these things into consideration.
