Grammar
If you don't mind,
Have you ever heard that 'If you don't mind, I will like to open the window" or "if you didn't mind, I would like to open the windows?" I feel like although those sentences are correct in grammar, the meanings of them are weird. So "If you don't mind, I would like(want) to open the windows" is right in both ways. What do you think? Please help me again.
