[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you feel you have to accept your friend’s rudeness in order to maintain the friendship? I have several CFBC friends that I see without my kids present because they aren’t kid people. They have never said anything like this to me. Why can’t you tell her “hey, can you not yuck my yum? I love having kids, and those minor things don’t bother me”. [/quote] Honestly, we're close enough that I probably could. I just don't want to seem rude.[/quote] You know what’s rude? Not being clear and honest with a good friend. Wouldn’t you want her to tell you if you were doing something that was bothering her? In between the ripping her a new one and just letting this pass is a middle space where you can be straightforward with her about how her comments are landing with you. It will be okay. Clear is kind. [/quote]
