Fallacies in my Communication

I thought my communication skills were very good, until I read this week's reading and came across the fallacies. In my intrapersonal communication, I do a lot of those fallacies but the one that is most common in my communication is my response to other people when they communicate emotions with me. For example, about a week ago in my philosophy class midterm my friend was telling me that he could not study because of his family party at his house. I was reviewing for midterm when he told me his problem but rather than consoling him, I told him. "it is okay, you will do fine". I thought I did not say anything wrong to him, but he took it offensively. He thought I did not care about his life or his feelings, but on the other hand I was focused on my review for midterm and just randomly answered him. I felt bad and apologize to him, and today after reading this chapter I realized that I should response sensitively to others, when they communicate with me through their emotions.
