Why is my aunt being funny

My aunty has something against me or maybe its just me being paranoid but she constantly makes comments and I don't know what the point is. Basically she came visiting like she does every few days and tennis was on the TV and my mum said to her 'look that player is only 19 shes younger than Rachel' then my aunt said 'yea Rachel's an old timer compared to her'.
A few days ago my mum was telling my aunt that I kept going dizzy and shaking and I said 'yea I was thinking it might be epilepsy or something' then she said 'your good at diagnosing yourself arn't you, I see a girl and she just reminds me of you' She works in mental health but do you think she has a problem with me or something? Or is it just me?

Sounds like it's just you. How old are you? If you're 25 or something she was probably just having a joke with you concerning the first comment. As for the second - if it was epilepsy, she'd be the one to spot it, not you. :p:

I wouldn't call it a problem. Just mild paranoia. Calm down - she's not out to get you. :biggrin:

Sounds as though your auntie feels you need to grow up a bit - maybe she feels your parents have baby-ed you a bit.

She's prob having a dig at them as much as you! Don't fret about it...or you could be really grown up and next time she says soemthing that makes you feel upset say "When you tease me like that it makes me feel you don't like me".

Honesty is the best policy?
