How would you feel

Pollycat

I don't think we're 'getting this' because the OP hasn't explained it very well.

It all sounds very strange.

Did this happen in Preschool? If not, I'd be wondering why I was friends with a Preschooler.

How would you feel if you caught a friend making faces at you behind your back. Would you be hurt or would you let it go over your head?

I had been at a funeral and was at the church for refreshments afterwards. This friend who I've known for 15 years was sitting beside me chatting to me and people being people were teasing him. So he made a face at me not realising of course I had seen him.

So was he beside you or behind you? What were they teasing him about?

If a friend of mine was pulling faces behind my back I'd think there were better things in life to be bothered about and I'd probably pull a face back at them!

...and especially if you were at a funeral.

Maybe the OP needs to get this into perspective - or come back and give a few more details about why he/she feels the need to ask if it would upset other people.

I think it would be justified for you to feel let down by your friends actions under the circumstances. He was sat chatting to you after you had attended a funeral, normally an emotional event. So most likely you probably needed his support and a listening ear.

Immature individuals inadvisedly decided this was a good moment to tease him. It doesn't say much about him, or how he values you as a friend, that he chose to respond to this by making a face at you.

It really depends on how you now feel about him. Do you want to discuss this with him, let him know how much what he did hurt you and resolve things? To be honest I would find someone like him a bit lacking in character to want him to be a close friend of mine.

Sorry your feelings were hurt OP.

loving this thread, for the confusion (not the op feeling hurt)

I guess, as we're all confused at what someone may or may not have done and if they did or didn't pull a "I may or may not go there" face has anyone considered the friend may have been showing the teasing friends his "I'm in heaven" orgasm face and therefore it may be on for young and old?

all of this at a funeral too!

(no disrespect to op who may... or may not come back)

I am reading it as the man sat next to the OP. The friends were teasing him about being with her, and he pulled a face as if to say 'no way, I wouldn't go there'

If that is the case, then I would be very hurt and can understand you feeling upset.

Of course I could have it wrong altogether!

Thank you Tenmah. No you don't have it wrong, you have it exactly right.

Thank you for finally giving us the detail that we need to answer you properly.

Here's what I think... you were at a funeral, !!!!!!. Don't you think it's a bit disrespectful to spend your time worrying whether your mate does/doesn't fancy you, is being rude by pulling faces/not pulling faces, not to mention the other mates who spend their time teasing people?

Just saying.

Considering it was his uncles funeral, I think he's the one who was being disrespectful. In any case would you be hurt if you suffered badly with facial eczema, like i do, and your friends treated you like that?
