Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 10:26 pm

Lucy's mother and father was having a party for their grandson. Lucy and Eileen
(Lucys cousin) were talking and Eileen said to Lucy "You are a size 8, right", and
Lucy said "Yes." And then Eileen said "I THOUGHT YOU WERE A SIZE 8 and
the only reason why I am asking is because I am cleaning out my closet and I
couldn't remember if you said you are a size 8 or 10." Lucy was upset at the
question so Lucy told her friends the next day what Eileen said but all of Lucy’s
friends told Lucy that Lucy’s cousin Eileen never thought Lucy is a higher than a
size 8, all that Lucy’scousin was doing was confirming Lucy is a size 8. Do you agree
with Lucys friends that (1) Eileen does not think Lucy is higher than a size 8; (2)
and all Eileen was doing was just confirming that Lucy is a size 8. KEEP IN MIND
A MONTH LATER LUCY, LUCYS MOTHER, EILEEN AND EILEENS
MOTHER WERE TALKING AND EILEEN SAID LUCY IS SMALLER IN
CLOTHES THEM MY MOM. EILEENS MOM TAKES A SIZE 10

hey, well i think that she wasnt sure if lucy was a size 8 or a size 10 and that was the reason why she said both. i dont think that she was just confirming. i think that she wasnt sure and was trying to ask politely without having lucy get offended.

1) I don't think Eileen thinks Lucy is higher than a size 8.
2) I do think she was just confirming.

Eileen surely just wanted to make sure she was giving Lucy the right size of clothes. It seems that she assumed that Lucy was a size 8, but if she was wrong, Lucy may have been offended.

Think of it this way: If Lucy was really a size 10, and Eileen gave her size 8 clothes, Lucy may have felt that Eileen was saying she is overweight. So she played it safe, and decided to make sure that Lucy was a size 8 as she assumed she was.

Lucy shouldn't fret. I don't think that Eileen asked her in order to make her feel bad.
