Karen, Part Two

If you genuinely think the response I provided you constitutes "playing games," then you're clearly misguided. Moreover, you're highlighting your desire to communicate like adults as well as my supposed lack of maturity. Meanwhile, you refer to me as "Karen" and make veiled threats against me. I think that's ironic. If you have an issue with something I said in my earlier messages, please enlighten me. I'm being straightforward with you regarding this matter, and it appears to me that you're misinterpreting my preferences as a personal insult. The bottom line is I strongly dislike secondhand smoke, and you've exposed me to it on numerous occasions. If the fact that I've expressed my disapproval of your smoking/vaping in my vicinity offends you, then maybe that indicates a flaw you possess (rather than one of mine). In other words, it doesn't really bother me that you smoke and vape; that's YOUR business. But by excessively doing so in the same space I breathe air, you're making it MY business. I am just trying to lead a healthy life, and I don't want your conduct in my work environment to negatively impact my ability to do that. I hold no grudge against you as a person; I merely worry about my physical health. To reiterate, I think it's unfair to be this upset with me purely because I am determined to prioritize my health (which includes avoiding the preventable inhalation of toxic substances). I also think if behaving like an adult is TRULY as important to you as you claim, then you would not approach me like a child and bear a sense of grievance against me solely on the basis of my reasonable objection to the inhalation of secondhand smoke.
