[quote=Anonymous]I always treat this stuff like a joke and most normal people get the point. Wow Bob, tell me how you really feel about the carpet upstairs! I get it, you don't like it. If this doesn't work, just be honest. Some of these retorts suggested by other posters are so rude and flippant. It's just meeting emotional immaturity with more of it. What is the point of that. Act like an adult and say how you feel. Just say that while this may not be their intention, the questions about your house are landing as critical and please stop. And then if that doesn't work and they persist or are defensive or gaslight you (that's not what I meant, you're too sensitive), then you know you are dealing with people with a personality disorder. So you grey rock and stop interacting with them so much if it bothers you. Time for boundaries.[/quote]
