To think this woman was just being a passive aggressive bitch?

[WilburIsSomePig]

DH is away with work this weekend, it's a good opportunity for him and he wanted to go. We had been invited to a charity event and we decided that as he was away, I would go on my own with friends. It wasn't a 'couples' thing, just a mixture of people with a common interest in the charity.

A friend put some photographs of the event on Facebook today and my friend's sister commented on them with a 'you all look like you had a great time, was Mr Pig not there?' She knew he wasn't going as I saw her a couple of weeks ago and mentioned it then. The next comment from her was 'Well done you, I don't think I could enjoy myself on a night out if I new my other half was working and I was on a jolly. Love that you can, I would just feel so guilty'.

It's really pissed me right off, but I may be hungover and sensitive!

Maybe her dh is a twat who makes her feel guilty for having a life while yours is supportive?
Smile sweetly that you have a better dh!!

I'm not sure. Is she known for pa remarks?

So she's only allowed to enjoy herself when her OH isn't working? How strange. I hope she's not an army wife.
Does she have form for being pa? I'd just ignore her.

I'd feel more sorry for her given that it sounds like a codependent nightmare

I'd just be like, 'Thanks!'

She's a fucking douchebag! Just reply 'I love that we each have our own life and don't need to live in each other's pockets, that's why our marriage is so happy'.....
In reality you should probably just ignore it and take the higher ground but I don't think I'm mature enough for that.....

Ignore her, she's being a bitch.

She's just a weird bore. Does she sit at home at her loom waiting for her man to come home?

Op yanbu.
I think my response to your friend ( in private) would be your sister is a sad evil bitch, don't ever invite me to yours if she is there.

Or you could be equally PA and reply 'really? Gosh, that's such a shame, I'm here if you need to talk'

I don't know her that well, when I saw her a couple of weeks ago, it was only the 4th/5th time I'd met her. My friend did comment on the post with a 'what's that supposed to mean?' comment but I texted her to tell her to ignore and not get involved!

She did text back and say 'just being her usual pleasant self, hates to see anyone else having a good time'.

Bad advice alert

I wouldn't be able to resist commenting something very passive aggressive like "you can only have fun when your husband's not working? That sounds awful! Good job he's not prime minister/a soldier, isn't it?"

I may even add some emojis...

Haha, Kennethnoisewater are clearly cut from the same cloth!

Just comment "that's such a shame for you" on her comment.

What a bizarre comment. Silly old cow, what's her problem?

Glad your friend is not weird like her sister. I would love to write kenneths post but it will probably be better if you just ignore her.

The best PA response I've ever seen to this kind of nonsense is:

"Thanks for commenting"

I think it's brilliant, I'd go with that.

Well it's all about her isn't it?

You are quite right to ignore her.

'Thanks for the info' works well too.

There's no need to reply as she's making herself look a total tit to anyone who reads it!

I'd just reply "Really?? How weird!"

I would just think what a deeply tragic life she was leading if I read that comment and I honestly would think good on yer that you've gone out and enjoyed yourself alone, whilst your husband was working.

What on earth does she do if she get home from work earlier than her husband, or has a day off when he's working ? Shudders to think
.

I'd go with being PA right back:

Oh that's such a shame that you can't socialise independently, poor you! Mr Wilbur is so supportive of me having time to myself and he encouraged me to go. It's one of the many reasons that I love him so much!
