I don't think I'd find that condescending, can't speak for anyone else. I think comments like that could potentially by quite confidence boosting and complimentary. At least I hope so because I think that's the equivalent of where I say 'nice move' to a partner if they've thrown in a nice new move. Isn't it good to occasionally voice approval?Originally Posted by Gojive
Don't ask me where the line is drawn though between a condescending comment and an encouraging appreciative one! I think you can probably sense when someone is being condescending through tone of voice and body language rather than choice of words alone. (Or language of voice and body tone, whichever you prefer to examine ).
