"Hello trouble"

[TheAverageJoanne]

A man I vaguely know (friend's stepbrother) said this to me in greeting yesterday at a funeral. I found it trivialising and sexist (he wouldn't have said it to a man). AIBU?

Why didn't you include this information on you first post?

He definitely fancies you and probably attends funerals just to hit on younger women 🙄

Funny for you to say that when you’ve clearly taken this thread to heart 🥲

Not at all.

No, I don’t. I have a perfectly good sense of humour, it’s just something that adults don’t say to each other in my world. Just because people do things differently like that it doesn’t make them odd or taking themselves too seriously, I’m sure other people use figures of speech that you don’t and would find weird if someone said them to you. I think it must be known around here as a childlike greeting. I’m 35 and haven’t had it used on me for years.

Are you 10 years old by any chance? 😂😂😂

Perhaps you take yourself too seriously cheeky chops

Dying.

How do you know he would not have said it to a man?

I would say it's really patronising but also if he was flirting with you at a funeral it sounds like an episode of curb your enthusiasm which is another thread entirely
