Is this an example? I've been working on paying attention to intention. If I know someone cares about me, but is expressing it poorly, I try to focus on their intent rather than their expression of that intent.

I'd watch their behaviour, which I would also have classed as expression of the intent. Do they show they care? That being the thing you actually want.
