I wish I came up with fast comebacks when people make me feel awkward

For example today one of the workers in my building asked if I was pregnant then goes n say but I don’t see ur man, I was here( supposedly joking around) but he’s an old short fart . & starts telling me how he’s been single a yr meanwhile he has daughters that live in my building. Like he would ever have a chance 🤢 this was all in Spanish. like why do ppl feel so comfortable saying these things it’s just plain rude but I’m too nice in the end he said congrats. Another worker that came to change a leak that’s a dike says oh u got some and touched my belly quickly. I have to change somehow idk what is it I’m doing wrong .

Some people feel weirdly entitled to other people I’ve def felt uncomfortable like that and didn’t do anything. I’ve been through phases in my life I’ve been silent or I’ve been like tRY ME😂 you just gotta be bolder or have more of a RBF you prob look too friendly or nice

you have to be more short (no pun intended) w them. So that way they don’t even think they have a clue to talk to you a certain way. Some ppl are too comfortable but you just have to distance yourself as much as possible so they don’t think your buddy buddy w them.

@Stephanie yeah that’s what I been doing w that guy but I guess this time he took advantage that he was going in this room by my apartment door and got to ask and started talking :/

tell them you have to go for whatever reason. a doctors appt! Say you can’t talk bc you have to get ready for that. Be unavailable. Deny access to your baby belly. Protect your little one. it gets a lot easier once you put the little baby first and cut off what doesn’t make you comfortable & what you don’t want around your baby. You got this mama 🫶🏽

@Stephanie thanks yeah I was just getting home so I was drained thank god he didn’t touch my belly but the other person she was on her way out and out of nowhere mention my belly and touched it really fast . Thanks this is all new to me but I do see some ppl think they can just ask whatever or touch.

@Blessings yeah before that I would say hi quickly then walk Past him quickly I don’t see him often but I will keep that in mind so he doesn’t keep trying to conversate and ask me questions

Give them the silent treatment and ignore them in the hallway, allowing them to reflect on their wrongdoing. Continue this treatment until they approach you, This time with commons sense and respect. discomfort them and making them realize their error.

Never allow people to ever get that comfortable with you. No matter who they are. Stand firm and show them that your intelligent enough to know when your trying to be f’d with and intelligent enough to make them go reflect on there foolish actions.
