Insulting compliments

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

I don't see that as an insult either, just friendly chat...but oh well.

Be glad she didn't ask you if it was your last century!

That sounds like something I would have said as a means of trying to make conversation. I can see how it could be an insult, if it was meant that way. Of course, it depends on how it was said.

That's what I'm thinking -- could just be an attempt at some small talk. Besides who cares what other people think? Just enjoy the ride.

I wouldn't take it to heart. She probably just said it without thinking. I'm a master at that. She may have meant your first one this year, or like someone else said, it was HER first century and she was focused on her accomplishment at the moment. Apparently it was a great ride and your hard work has paid off. Congrats!
