I'm in the midst of trying to get an issue straightened out with a group I'm involved in, and one of the leaders I had hoped could be reasonable about it, instead just made an assumption (accusation?) and said, "I'm sorry your feelings were hurt".
Anyone have this happen? I get the sense it's projection on her part. She gets her feelings hurt, so she assumes that must be what happened. It's not helpful in getting the problem solved. I laid out the issue, but instead, she's attempting to change the issue to "my feelings." And it's done in a way that now I must defend myself. Is this common? The way I am interpreting it, it seems to be an example of victim blaming.

Sometimes people say "I'm sorry your feelings are hurt" or "I'm sorry you feel that way" when you want a solution or an apology from them, and they are not going to respond. I hate that.
