That's my theory.
In my case, the addressee failed to move. At least, they may have
shuffled backwards slightly, wearing a startled expression, but they
certainly didn't disintegrate.
From which I concluded that I could stop letting myself be controlled
by the 'you are a mighty tree and I am but a fragile little flower' act,
once, for all, and guiltlessly, and get on with my life. V. liberating,
that.
