I was slighted, but I did not show my reaction. I just thought that her remarks were improper and that even her going to places has not taught her a bit of good manners. The day after the event, she called and told me that we should meet more often. I really hate the suggestion because I am even afraid that she will just be embarrassing me when she starts talking to people about my not too good family background. I want to control the damage.
Some people are just tacky.
They could hurt the feeling of others without knowing it. You have to be truthful about how you dislike the remarks she makes. Perhaps, your friend even thinks that it is a compliment to acknowledge your beauty in the past. It is not in your best interest to renew your friendship with her. When she calls, listen to her, but excuse yourself from the invitations she will offer.
