Yes, as it happens you don't even need to write anything aggressive to be mistaken as such.
Try reading your response in 3 ways: try speaking in a slightly lower monotonic voice, or try acting confused when you speak as if you didn't pay attention, and finally try putting a hard emphasis on on "this" and "not" while speaking quickly.
You'll hear a sarcastic remark, a genuine question, and a rude threat.

Should I tell you off for being aggressive when you could be genuinely confused? Or perhaps am I mistaking your sarcasm for being confused and educating you unnecessarily? Would this reply be considered an educational response, or maybe a sarcastic mockery? The possibilities are all too many
My point being is your own misconceptions color your view of everything, and you only have yourself to blame if you misread someone. And I do believe you're both misreading me, and will continue to do so despite what I've said and would say. Should I take that as a sign of aggression? Perhaps, if after saying twice in a row what my intentions were.
