Questions that people ask that are to personal....

just had to ask you all.... Do you ever get around a person or a group of people that are on a TMI kick?

where they ask you to personal of questions?

or they just share very disturbing or inappropriate things at the most inappropriate time?

I had a client tell me about her trip to this honey moon sweet and how they have a pool in the suite so everything thing is private... well i have another client sitting in the chair next to her.. and my client blurts out and ("It was so nice getting in that pool naked and letting those 45 yr old balloons float to the top!") at this point im kinda like omg and have to hold in one of the biggest laughs i think ive had in a long time...

tell me about some of your experiences...

what is one of the most embarrassing personal questions youve been asked?

and do you like to ask personal question or shoot out a TMI every now and again?

I’m pretty discreet about most things and if someone asks me something I deem too personal, I tell them so.
But once in a while I might let out a little bit of something – just to keep people on their toes.

As for others sharing too much or really pushing me for info - on Saturday night that very thing happened to me. I tried to politely skirt my way out of the conversation and they kept pushing/going on so I finally had to tell them I was really uncomfortable with the topic and they moved right on.

Yes and yes


The more resent experiences have to do with my Husband's and my experience with Prostate cancer and the afterlife/sexlife post op

I will answer some of the questions BUT not all and not in depth on our personal sexual level

YES your sex life changes
YES it is hugely different
YES we still have sex

and YES it took yrs ( 4 this summer ) to recreate a wonderfully different kind of sex life ...

shrug

and IF the questions are seeking a deeper insight into the hows and whys I simply state that THAT is between Michael and I nod and I have noticed that many respect that and several have drifted away because they have ISSUES surrounding our experience


lol

I very rarely ask people personal questions. I guess I'm just not interested in knowing that kind of things about someone.

I don't think I've been asked anything that was so personal that I didn't answer. hmmm

For some reason I'm not phased by personal questions. That's just me though.

My best friend's friend (who is now my friend) asked me what my dimensions were, if you know what I'm saying. I told her without missing a beat. My best friend was mortified that she asked.

falloff That's hilarious!

I'm kind of the same way. Personal questions don't phase me. I also will TMI sometimes, but keep it brief! lol

I get a lot of TMI from my patients. I really don't need to know that it was your husband that felt the lump in your breast etc.

It depends.

I hate it, tho, when people ask me about getting married or having a baby. pout

I also don't like when people ask how much I make, or how I could afford my house. confused

I am also not really all that phased by personal questions. shrug I have been known to occasionally be the asker of the personal question,but not to often.

Ex g/f to me: So have you slept with your ex(wife) since she's been there?

There was no lead in or anything hinting that asking me that was remotely ok.

I remember in 12th grade (which was about 4 years ago), we were in class talking about puberty and wet dreams in a joking kind of way, when one of my friends just blurts out:

"I've never had wet dreams because I masturbate daily"




the whole class stopped and was like "did he just say that"

I got up and sat in a different seat lol

I've never been asked a question I thought was too personal, but I don't embarass easily so shrug

Sometimes my answer embarasses the person who asked. I find that especially when the subject is a loved one who's passed away. For example, someone might ask what my dad does for work. When I tell them he died in 1992, people tend to get really awkward and mumble something along the lines of, "I'm sorry." I still haven't figured out a way to respond that would put them at ease.

any topic is OK apart from bodily functions. please don't tell me about what happened last time you went to the toilet.

i don't care what questions people ask me, but i tend to be vague with the answers.

My response was a lot for both! lol

I found her to be very intrusive especially since she asked on my first day there. Thank God i left!

....Did you see what i did, i put this answer on the wrong thread - thank God i discovered the edit tab lol
