Making a rude coment to my girlfriend's brother

[halifax89]

This afternoon I had lunch with my girlfriend and her little brother. We were eating some wings and her brother said "man, I almost choked!"

I looked at him and said "well don't stuff your mouthful like you did" he said "i didnt, i really didnt"

 

then i said "I have seen how you eat, you eat so fast like the food is going to run from you" my girlfriend looked at me and said "wow you are a jackass", i said "what, you have even mentioned that before" she said " yea but coming from you makes you look like a jackass"

 

i apologized but didn't see where I was that rude. I mean I was trying to tell him to slow down so he wouldn't choke!

That would have been sufficient. The explanation is what made you look like a jackass more than likely.

Yeah, you sounded critical. Like you were some kinda father figure.

 

Use more humor, when youre trying to help someone out.

 

The saying goes, sugar attract more bees than vinegar, or something like that.

 

Yeah, you were a tad bit rude, but also dont apologize unless what you said was taken out of context

Pretty much - you could of got the same result with a "Well mate slow down, it ain't gonna run away from ya :p"

Whereas what you said was more accusatory.

 

 

Plus, she can say stuff like that - she's his sister, theres no question over the fact she cares for him, you can't you don't have the same relationship with him.
