You do this all the time - someone tells you they have a problem with you, on a personal level, over how you've been, and then you tie it back to the game it about that. It's about *you*, and how you are towards other players. You used to be better at recognising this too, it feels like your personal development is going backwards in this regard.
Anyway, you and Prof can work it out post game. One day you'll understand I guess.
