their job vs our responsibility

Whenever we are attending a family reunion, it's our 'responsibility' to go and greet the elders. And when they see us, it's also their 'job' to say something about us. And i think the most common ones will be :

1) Waa .. you are all grown up and more matured now. ( in another word, you look OLD ! )
哇！你越來越成熟穩重了。

2) Waa .. you look so healthy and prosperous now. ( in another word, you look FAT ! )
哇！你越來越有福相了。

Which one is SCARIER?
I DEFINITELY prefer then to tell me the 1st line lorr... cos i know i will grow old vogiuly. But being FAT is just not what i want to do. ;p


p/s : i think i know what is the scariest comment :

" Waaa. you are all grown up and prosperous now. " lol ;p

    I think the worst is when they ask "Wah !!! Where is your girlfriend."

    When are you getting married?

    The worst is when they ask you whether you gained weight when you have actually lost weight?

    Hey, I happen to be an 'elder one' but I don't say such things to my younger relatives la... (so don't capsize the boat with a single bamboo stick, LOL) On the contrary, I get a lot of remarks like .... you know la, all the nice things ladies like to hear, haha!
