So. I work in a pretty high tech field. I am fairly well respected at work for whats knocking about in my head. I Can dress up or go fairly casual. I always keep a good appearance though.
Whether I am dressed up or down. No one comments about my looks. It may be an HR thing. But, I'd like to think its because my looks aren't really important. If I had three eyeballs, it should still be basically the same.
But, when I show up at church. When I do go. People like to tell me how nice I look. Its a weird complaint, I know. It just seems so weird. I am an average looking mommy. I clean up okay. My husband still gets hot for me. I could not care less about what other people think about me face when I throw on some lip gloss and run a comb through my hair.
But, thats their greeting, "sister so-n-so, you look so nice. Is that a new haircut?"
Then no follow up. Nothing about my life or their life or our jobs or kids, etc.
Its just weird. not necessarily bad, but it doesn't feel right either.
Maybe its not a mormon thing. Maybe its a church thing. Maybe its a woman thing. who knows.
