My DP has a habit of talking about people right in ear shot of them and I'm not sure if he does it on purpose or not.
Like yesterday we took my daughter to karate and the bloke at the centre door had a funny accent and said "is it for 'krate'?" so we said yes then we'd litrally walked a couple of steps away and DP said "krate?? what the hell is 'krate'??" I didnt say anything because I was scared the bloke would hear us and then DP finished off with "honestly, some people really make me wonder". but the building was practically silent apart from DP so he must've heard...
Then when we were actually in the karate hall they were doing their partner work and DP said "you know, it makes me laugh all this 'hi ya!' because in a real fight they wouldnt stand a chance". He was saying it in a loud whisper but the instructor was stood litrally inches away and I'm sure he was listening.
A few weeks ago we were sitting in a hairdressers and my DS was having his hair cut and DP 'whispered' "she's got a massive nose that lass hasn't she?" but not only are his whispers not quiet but he makes it obvious he's whispering about people with his body language too.
Thing is my mum is very similar so is it just me that is overly careful?? or would this annoy you too?
