much ? There's this one uncle of mine that I visited in Asia who seems to dislike the fact that I'm naturally a quiet person and I tend to not talk much. I'm a friendly person but I usually listen over talk. Also, I haven't seen him in 8 years so I tend to freeze up more around people I haven't seen in a long time and am not close to.
He keeps pointing it out repeatedly that I don't talk much and I already told him I'm naturally quiet. He is very close to everyone else in the family and never judges them, but but for some reason it's me he judges. The thing that pisses me off is that he hasn't spent any quality time with me so I don't really have a particular connection to him.
His son (my cousin) is even quieter than I am and he never picks on him about it ...
Anyways, how do you deal with a judgmental relative like this??? i don't understand why he comments on my quietness but not any of the other quiet people in my family. i feel like an outsider or unloved
