to think this was rude?

[JennifersBody]

On a lunch break, bumped into someone I used to work with in the toilets.

I said hey, how are you? and congratulations by the way! (she got married a couple of months ago)

And she replied - "thanks, you always said we'd end up getting married. We're not having any babies just yet"

And with that she walked off.

I felt like saying - A) I never even asked you about children and B) Thanks for asking how I am.

Went back to my table. Could see her sat on the other side with a friend so she wasn't in a rush or had to be somewhere.

Maybe she was fed up of people asking when she planned to start a family, so got her response in first? And if she was lunching with a freind she maybe felt it would be rude to leave that friend for a long time?

was she rude when you worked with her?

Maybe her friend had been bugging her about children?

Some people are just full of themselves - don't let it bother you

I agree, she probably gets loads of people doing that old 'you're married now, when will you be starting a family' line of questioning and was expecting the same from you. Not asking you how you are, that is a bit rude though.

She sounds like a proper charmer. Who cares if 1000 people before you had asked about kids, no need for her to be so abrupt to you.

Do you think she thought that you thought she was pregnant as it is quite a while after the wedding to be giving congratulations.

(And at someone you used to work with in the toilets)

I too thought you said you used to work together in the toilets.

She could have been less curt, I agree.

I thought she was mostly rude for not going, "And how are things with you / job / family" and at least show some interest in your life.

Awww.....she was coming out of the toilets a couple of months after getting married and announced she wasn't having any children yet. Ouch.
I'd think she had a massive disappointment a few seconds ago.

Just curious but what work did you do in the toilets?

"work with in the toilets"

Maybe she had other stuff on her mind.

What lynette said. Exactly that.
