[quote=Anonymous]Is it normal or gauche AF (yes, I am editorializing) to take sides in an aggressive way when a couple has a minor disagreement in front of you? DH and I are neither party here — we have a friend who repeatedly takes a side and needles one party when let’s say they argue in a funny way at dinner over whether to redecorate, or plans for a group thing. It happens a lot with one woman, who sees herself as an “activist and truth teller” (I did not know that one could regard redecoration as a political party or philosophy to ride or die for, but) and recently led to some truly awkward circumstances for everyone else present - and we’re all late 40s. Is this a normal thing, to step in to the degree that one party feels set upon and freaks? Or is it crappy? My vote is obvious I know but I’m wondering if this kind of interaction is seen by many as “banter” even where someone begs to change the subject or cries (yes that’s happened). [/quote]
