Conveying the full extent of one's meaning in the best way possible: Communication]

I’ve long since realized that part of what turns people off so much to how I communicate is that I can only do the implied, the subtextual, the synecdoche, when I do abstract, emotional, expressionistic things. I can only communicate the real and factual and immediate through complex, multi-clausal, lawyeristic, layered phraseology that insists on accuracy above humanity. I always feel the need to express an entire (parenthetically or clausally interrupted for clarification [possibly multiple times]) train of thought for fear of feeling somehow stupid or crazy or weird for worst of all misconstrued. It’s the perfect way to write an academic paper or draft legislation or defend a client but it’s a shitty way to maintain interpersonal relationships.
