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? insatiable3: how can i cure my hangover?

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

Hate the "overshare." We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

People ask me ALL the time when I'm finally going to have a baby. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

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. | |

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.

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! 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. I'm firmly planted in denial | |

It depends.
I hate it, tho, when people ask me about getting married or having a baby. I also don't like when people ask how much I make, or how I could afford my house. "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me.

I am also not really all that phased by personal questions. I have been known to occasionally be the asker of the personal question,but not to often. Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. ~Berthold Auerbach | |

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 "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

I've never been asked a question I thought was too personal, but I don't embarass easily so
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. everyone's a fruit & nut case | |

At my previous job the owners daughter asked me about how many men had i slept with and how much i owed on my mortgage
My response was a lot for both! 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 | |
