"I understand, but I don't understand. Do you understand?"

Could it be: I heard what you say and understand it is factual, but do not understand why it's happening to me. Yanowhutimean?

Kinda-sorta almost makes sense that way. (::hanging head in mourning for the demise of the English language, let alone the King's English::)

"I know you think you understand what you think you thought I said, but I'm not so sure you realize that what you think heard is not what I meant".
