My strange mother in law

[morethanpretty]

So this in no way compares to your crazy in-law issues, but I was recently reminded of this incident:

My uncle-by-marriage has long been notorious in my family (at least my half) for the inappropriate comments he tends to make. Usually just something uncomfortable that can't be responded to. My brother got married last year and everyone was meeting at the church. I was in the kitchen with my nanny (grandma to some) and he walks in, this is how he greets me,"Hello Melissa, I haven't seen you in ages, you sure have gained a lot of weight." Most awkward thing ever. Even more so because I had gained about 10lbs over that year, but I thought I was carrying it well and my clothes covered it. I just sputtered something back, excused myself to go help the bride. As I walked away though I could here my nanny,"What is wrong with you? She looks perfectly fine, you never ever mention....!" After that he's always really careful to compliment me on something when I see him.
