Are You Condescending Without Knowing It?

You explain simple things
You often explain rather simple concepts to people—concepts they probably understand. You probably just don’t want to assume someone understands something before moving forward with the conversation, but you come off as condescending. The best thing to say is, “Please stop me if I’m telling you something you already know” so you give them the benefit of the doubt that they might already know this.
