I used to feel terrible, but now I'm starting to think that the other person might have a giant chip on their shoulder.

My husband has a saying, You can't feel like a heel, but maybe the whole shoe". That about covers it for me in that situation. Sometimes people are too sensitive, but at other times each of us can be a bit heavy handed.
I feel a little guilty at first, then realize that it's not my fault that they misinterpreted me. If possible, I try to rectify the miscommunication, or at least make them aware of it.
Multiple strength, for multiple tits.
I ask why they are offended (to find out where the miscommunication took place); then I clarify what I meant. If they're still offended, I simply move on.
