Backhanded complement...
So someone at works says to me today:
"Pregnancy agrees with you."
I say "Thanks!"
She says "It humanizes you."
Huh??
Backhanded complement, right?

Re: Backhanded complement...
maybe the two statements were separate? or that creating a human is a beautiful thing? I think most people don't think when they talk, but I don't think that they mean to be mean.

I'm dying to ask her exactly what she meant, but I don't want to seem like it unnerved me or anything.
It was earlier today so I would definitely seem obsessive if I asked.

Re: Backhanded complement...
What an odd thing to say!
Maybe the person means that you are so incredibly talented and capable and accomplished that you dont seem human because you have no flaws?
