Seats are made to be reclined. I applaud your politeness in waiting until all services had finished.
I was actually on a flight recently where the f/a asked people who had prematurely reclined to place them in the upright position until meal service was finished.First time I have seen this.
Did the people behind you lean forward onto their pillows? Can't imagine doing that, but each to their own.They must have realised that were going to come across problems. Did you request they stop pushing?
Perhaps a word in the f/a's ear would help?
I never know how to deal with these types of people and have suffered many a flight with kids kicking me and running riot also.
