Just felt like ranting a bit. When I was pregnant, a particular aunt of my hubby's loved to touch me. She is in her 50s and has a 25yo son of her own. I am not at all close to her but she kept patting my baby bump expectedly. She even stroked my butt and placed her hands and slide down fr the side of my waist down to my hips! At my baby's full month celebration, she actually came up to me to say "you still need to work hard and slim down abit more" when in fact the whole world was politely lamenting that I have shrunk and gone back almost to my pre-pregnancy size! Recently at a family gathering (when baby was 5mo), the first thing she did when she saw me, was to check me out from head to toe and comment, ok you slimmed down?! Like seriously?! She is not slim herself and does not run a modelling agency nor a gym nor a bootcamp. Why can't these people keep their hands to themselves and keep their mouth shut?

Some people are like this. I will just ignore or if u have the guts say somethg equally back to her. That will teach her not to be so insensitive and rude. But best advice just ignore her. You can't please everybody.

Thanks! I have been caught offguard each time this aunt 'molests/gropes" me. I am very affected because my mom and sis don't even do that to me. They respect the personal space and that not everyone likes to be touched... I have ignored her and attempted steering clear of her. She just can stealthily make her way to me and touch me from behind and then laugh and walk away! No respect for someone and their personal space. Thanks anyway.. just wanted to rant a bit. grrrr
