I hope you understand my feelings

How do i revise this sentence, I dont know if i like the way understand my feelings sounds even though its probably grammatically right. Please revise the sentnce and it refers to telling my boyfriend something that's been bothering me, then to close it I want to say that sentence so want to say something along those lines saying I hope he will understand my feelings - something grammatically correct, thanks

How come when u say unicorn or eunuch you say "a unicorn" or "a eunuch" instead of saying "an" like we do with every other word that starts with a vowel? I know that it doesn't sound right... saying "an unicorn" or "an eunuch" so I guess I'm not really asking a question... just kinda throwing this fact out there. Let me know what you think... : )

For example, if i were to say "He kept using gesticulations instead of words."/ "He kept using gestures instead of words."
would that mean the same thing?

Is thiss a complete sentence. Please revise it and want to use another word maybe for simply, but not just:

Simply keeping the lines of communication open between us.

I am telling my boyfriend something that upsets me then I am closing it that way. Please reply soon, thanks

some products that needed to be moved. First time I have heard that word. It is in the dictionary. I checked. Have you ever heard that word? I would likely have said, "Put these things on a pallet move them over there."

use the expression --- "We are looking at ---" They might say, "We are looking at 75 degrees today in this part of the country." Not wrong, just interesting and a "fad" expression.

I've noticed a lot of odd uses of 'myself' and 'yourself' over the last year or so.

Examples:

Would that be OK for yourself?
Send it to myself.
We can deliver it to yourself on...

Personally I'd say 'Would that be OK for you?, 'Send it to me', etc.

Does anyone know where this came from? I mostly seem to hear it from sales and customer service people.
