[quote=Anonymous][quote] Once, I asked for ketchup for the table, and they brought a restaurant branded ketchup. She made a huge deal about how disgusting it is not to bring Heinz. I simply said, “I don’t mind. I’ll use it.” And she gave me the cold shoulder for months after that, claiming I judged her. [/quote] You did the right thing saying "I don't mind." That's a form of gray rocking. She was trying to mae the ketchup brand a big issue and you just let it roll without a reaction. That's great. And the continuation of that is not engage in her reaction to you choosing to use the no-name ketchup (I mean, just reflect on how ridiculous that sounds!). You try to not even notice she's giving you the cold shoulder - try not to think about her at all, and just shrug at whatever she does..[/quote]
