When is kindness hard to express? Why?
I am male, single and alone. I come across as stupid for being 'opinionated'; so it is causing me problems.

I know a guy who honestly finds riled up over anything and its pretty exhausting just chatting to him.
Unfortunately i dunno really what to say to help, other than it might help to assess the situation before barrelling in with your views, cause i'd assume thats whats causing the issues. Just stop, think, and if you throwing in your 2p is gonna dramatically alter the tone of the conversation in a negative way. dont do it.
Sorry this is probably all easier said than done, but theres very little concrete advice i can give you
Basically what thief has said.
Make sure your point is relevant to the conversation and make sure the way you say it doesn't come across as one of those conversation stoppers.
