Sounds like she expected a compliment, and was surprised when she didn't get one.
I think you're right. It was a lesson for me to, in the future, not offer any views, good or bad, to strangers.
One never knows to whom they are speaking. Years ago I used to post under a different name that sounded French and every time I posted compliments about French restaurants I got a bit of flack from some here. One day, at a lolo, I met a couple whom I won't name and they thought we were new to the island and started making restaurant recommendations . Then they suggested I go to traveltalkonline for info. When I said I was already registered there as Celeste Fuisse, the woman's response was YOU're Celeste? Conversation was awkward after that and they soon left.
