This is a question The passive-aggressive guilt trip

My mother is an expert in the guilt-trip. Last week she phoned to say "Happy Birthday" and, after a 10 minute conversation, finished with, "Well, I hope you have a nicer time than I did on the day you were born."

She also stated that she was going to kill herself when she reached 65. On Christmas Day morning. Having rung up to see if there was anything she could bring for lunch.

I think it's just a mother thing, but how good are your relatives and friends at the passive-aggessive?

My ex
FYI, the crying thing? It's called post-coital tristesse (see, there's a name for everything!).

My ex phoned me after a long period of staying the hell out of my life. When he asked me how I was, I truthfully replied, "Well, I've just come out of hospital and my grandmother's just died."

He never phoned again. Thank fuck.
