Things that make you feel awkward..

[ThetaPrincess24]

People who consistently talk bad about their spouse in front of me whether it is in public or private AND sometimes they will do this with the spouse right in front of them.

I'm not talking about the occassional frustration. I'm talking about they do this ALL of the time. Nothing their spouse does is good enough. Their spouse is so "stupid." They "hate" their spouse. They are always interrupting their spouse--just all around extreme disrespect.

This happens a lot with a family member. It's so awkward and awful. You just want to go hide.

Yes you do. My husband and I have actually been known to cut social outings short because of that because we dont do that to each other and dont like listening to it.

Y'all polite folks... lol I think the harshest thing I've ever said about my spouse in front of anyone else, including family, was something to the effect of "Grr...he's driving me crazy." I don't air grievances about my spouse to anyone but my spouse.

I can't stand when other people do that around me. I always try to redirect and, if it has gone too far, I'll intentionally offend the person. For instance, I'll say something like, "maybe it was your fault." People really just want someone to side with them and, when you don't, they usually move on.
