I am not seeing how you can make sure that he doesn't feel like you are attacking him. You cannot control his feelings.
You can look at what you say to him, and you can ask yourself if you are speaking in a reasonable manner. If you are, then it is up to him to respond in a reasonable manner, and it is his problem if he does not respond in a reasonable manner.

How seriously do you think that you are coming across? In other words, how reasonable is it for him to panic at what you say?
