The passive-aggressive guilt tripMy mother is an expert in the guilt-trip. Last week she phoned to say "Happy Birthday" and, after a 10 minute conversation, finished with, "Well, I hope you have a nicer time than I did on the day you were born."
She also stated that she was going to kill herself when she reached 65. On Christmas Day morning. Having rung up to see if there was anything she could bring for lunch.
I think it's just a mother thing, but how good are your relatives and friends at the passive-aggessive?

"i don't know what i want, how to express my uncertainty, or how to communicate. so i shall just clam up and let the relationship slide inexpressively down the toilet if that's okay with you..."
nice middle class girls from the south of england are wrong: discuss **
