to be miffed at his comment?

[fragileheart]

I'm going to a wedding on Saturday. DC has chicken pox so DH kindly offered to stay at home to care for DC so I can go to the wedding. I'm really looking forward.

I'm going with a close friend who's boyfriend is also coming, so 3 of us are going together.

I rang her last night just to finalize some details (I'm driving), and during the phone call her boyfriend shouted at "make sure you behave yourself at this wedding right fragileheart?"

My friend immediately made an embarrassed and awkward apology on behalf of her boyfriend for being rude.

I have a good track record and don't drink much. I've never been involved in any sort of social incident in the past.

AIBU to be a bit at his comment and in thinking what exactly he thinks I am going to do?

I've met him 2 or 3 times before so he doesn't even know me.

TBH id just ignore it as being a daft blokey comment

Maybe he was trying to be sarcastically witty because you are always good and would never misbehave

think you are taking it to heart too much

He might have been trying to be friendly in a clumsy sort of way.

Yes, daft blokey comment. Ignore

YABU - completely sounds like a jokey comment, unless you do have a history of getting uncontrollably pissed/obnoxious/frisky, I can't see why this would offend anybody.

Maybe it's actually a reference to you always being very well behaved a bit boring?

YABU

What everyone else said.

And your friend probably feel embarrassed/arkward because she knows how uptight sensitive you are

it was probably just a throwaway joviality, not pointed in any way - a bit like anyone saying "don't do anything I wouldn't" when you have no idea what they might get up to!

Ignore it - he was just being a bloke and probably trying to include you in a bit of banter.

Man humor, point taken.

I wouldn't class myself as boring or uptight but thanks anyway.

I dont think its 'man' humor, just general humor/banter

I often joke like this, but some people just dont get it

Do you have a track record?

If no, don't worry about it. It was a harmless joke. Even if you do it was a (possibly less) harmless joke.

Nobody classes themselves as being boring or uptight.

No track record orm.

skidoodle, I can see your point, and I can see the others point regarding me coming across as boring or uptight, but I think I've just painted myself in a bad picture that's all. I would class myself as average. I like a couple of drinks but don't enjoy getting totally plastered. I enjoy a dance but not making a total twat of myself on the dance floor. I enjoy getting a cab home from a night out at 2am but not waking up in a gutter at 6am. I think I've maybe made myself out to be a bit too lame iygwim.

Anyway, thanks for replies.

Sounds like it was just a joke (and is usually said to the people least likely to misbehave). I think you're being over sensitive.

I assumed from the OP that the joke was that they were going to be in the company of a women unencumbered by her usual responsibilities of husband and children, and who might therefore be tempted to go a bit wild.

Whatever he meant, I doubt he was trying to insult you.
