There's been some confusion over on Ambo's blog recently as to what constitutes an insult or a negative description.
Sometimes, its all in the interpretation.
For example, I am not entirely happy with the word "quite" which I take to mean "less than".
As in a recent email from a candidate: "You're quite pretty".
It's not an insult by any means, but it would've been a whole lot better without the "quite" no?
If someone is bored in my company and I discover later that this was the case, I cannot imagine finding that to be anything other than negative.
Admittedly, we can't be all things to all people and so there are bound to be some conversations/dates/outings that smack of boredom, but my policy is to leave as the conversation is starting to wane/drone on depending and thus mitigate the possibility of full out boredom.
But, maybe I am just being negative about the words themselves. Maybe "bored, fat, chunky, flat etc " can be viewed in a positive light
.
For example
"I am so glad your conversation is boring. I am a little tired this evening and might manage to take a quick nap whilst you talk about your dog again"
"I have never been so bored having sex as I was with you last night. Thank you for reminding me why I chose to be celibate"
Maybe it's just all in the translation?
So, beautiful people, did you ever get a backhanded compliment?
