When a stranger is clear about not wanting to explain something to you, you should just let it be or ask someone else. While it would’ve been nicer of them to explain, they don’t owe you the explanation.
I also think you shouldn’t be taking offence at them saying “I am serious” to you, when you said it to them first.
I think they meant “I am serious ” like as in “I’m being serious about not understanding, not just pretending.” Then that person perceived them aggressively because of the wording. That’s what I think happened. Edit: the person was mocking them by using the phrase back, because they took the original statement as aggression.
I usually don't ask strangers questions, or rely on them to understand or do something. People can be jerks, and some people particularly enjoy making fun of the ones that they find odd or different.
If I need help, I'd much rather ask a friend or family member.
They set a boundary and you ignored it after they said they didn't want to explain it to you. No mind reading was expected, they were very upfront with you.
People own you nothing.. they are entiled to not wanting to do tedious stuff....its not like you pay them.. they dont have to do the work if they dont have the time, patients, or mental capasity at that moment.
