I was having lunch with my mil. She said to me can you believe that xxx (some woman that we see in the park) is actually older than you?! I found this comment extremely upsetting as I have just given birth to a baby girl two months ago and I am conscious of how tired I look. I have however always been told to look younger than my age (but looking after a baby could easily change that). This woman in fact doesn’t look young at all. She looks just her age.
In fact it upsets me so much because she made a very similar comment a year ago which got me very upset and I believe my mil noticed. Yet she still did it again? I just don’t know if she’s simply blunt or wants to attack me. Any thoughts?
