[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Thanks everyone for the perspectives! To clarify it was not me but a dear friend, out with her SO, and SO’s parents (who I guess you’d call acquaintances now) at the dinner. My friend’s relative has been dx’ed with cancer. And the SOs mother was asking the questions. I’m not entirely sure how my friend responded to each question (detailed vs vague) but I do know at one point she expressed her discomfort at the conversation being had and excused herself to go to the bathroom. I think the newness of the dx might have had something to do with her reaction to the conversation. I also think the comments about reading the room, yenta behavior, rolodexing in the mind for help, and tragedy vulture are also in play from what I know about the SOs mother.
