@Khyia exactly what I was just typing. The word IF makes alll the difference.
It was more with an if. It was are you happy? Ok then I’m happy you’re happy.
No I’m still rocking with they meant they are glad you are happy BUT if you feel like it may not be genuine, ask them but be prepared for their answer.
@Khyia it wasn’t to me. It was my boyfriend’s SIL. His bros wife. My bfs daughter dislike me and my daughter. She is jealous and asked him why he has to date and why her and her sister aren’t enough and why date someone with a daughter. So his daughter (17) got her cousins to stop talking to my daughter, they were buddies. And his sil is nice but makes it clear she wants nothing to do with me. That’s what she said to him. His sil and daughter are very close. So I’m sure his daughter didn’t say she’s jealous but said something to her aunt.
@Kim my bf is happy. It just seems his kid isn’t. I was never part of the conversation, he just approached me and told me that was the conversation he had with his sil. I just stay quiet about it all. He says it’s a teen thing and she will out grow it. He told me years ago she said she was jealous.
@Kim I agree. She had a problem with her mom’s bf when they first got together as well. Took her years to accept him. I don’t know if she did similar thing by putting wedges amongst the family with him. I’m kinda like a bystander and watching it all.
To me it means the other person is genuinely happy you are happy
If I tell a friend I’m happy their happy that’s exactly what I mean. Now if I say if your happy I’m happy or if you like it I love it it’s almost guaranteed I don’t like whatever it is but they haven’t asked my opinion so I’m not going to give it unwarranted especially if it’s about a relationship they’ve gone back to multiple times.
