Offend somebody

[Attila]

Which is correct?

I don't want to offend you
or
I don't want you to be offended

Which is used more?

Thanks,

[Conchita]

Both are correct, Attila. In the second sentence, though, it is not clear or important who might offend you.

The first option is used more when the subject is the possible offender, I'd say.
