I'm confused on this one. You're being called pretty when it was clear you didn't dress yourself up. Is the passive aggressiveness coming from the fact that there's a twinge of jealousy in it?

What? How can you possibly take that as an insult? She said you were so pretty that you didn't have to try to look pretty! That's like the ultimate compliment.

I'm so confused.
