I was having some difficulties managing my computer and all I said to my husband was "Do you think you could help?"

And I am absolutely certain that at that point, I did not have any single negative or blaming thoughts in my mind. But I was absolutely shocked when my husband took offense to that question and want to know what's wrong.

I was totally dumb founded and shock with his reaction. Of course I explained to him that I did not at all have any underlying negative emotions when I said that but he see it differently.

How could such an innocent simple kindly phrased question turned out to be seen as a hidden sarcasm.

I am not angry or anything but I want to understand it and thus need your comment and feedback. I would really appreciate it. Thanks
