Top 10 Most Embarrasing Questions!

Sometimes folks ask questions that you really don't want to answer. But, politely raised as we are we answer them, uneasily shifting our feet, face red as a beet root. On some of these questions I simply don't answer anymore; it's either none of their business, or just nosiness.

1. "Guess my age, and I'll guess yours".
This is bound to go wrong, whole friendships are broken up before they grow out of their embryo-stage, when this game is played. I know how old I am and have no interest in knowing other people's age. The moment I find out how old someone really is, it's usually older anyway. I would have offended this person no end.

2. "Do you need help dear, like from a neighbor?"
Men never need help from another man, even if the neighbor would offer. So you offering help via via isn't going to go down well. A woman offering help to a man is even more embarrassing. They like to suffer in silence, so let them.

3."We have been driving around for hours now, dear, shouldn't we ask a passer-by for directions?"
Wrong question. Make sure there's plenty of gas in the car and be prepared to drive around for days, without finding the place where you were heading.

4."How much do you make a year?"
So they can judge you by the dollars you make. Who really cares how much another person earns. Are they going to pay all your bills if you know they got more money than you? Of course not.

5."What is your address?"
So they can judge you by knowing in what neighborhood you live.

6. "Is that your real hair color?"
What kind of a question is that? If the answer is "no" they'll know you are prematurely Grey. If the answer is "yes" it could mean they don't like it anyway. Useless question.

7. "Did you have any work done?"
This always confuses me a lot. The moment I think it's about the home-renovations it seems it is about my physical appearance. If you say "yes" they want to know what exactly is "done". If you say "no" it could either mean that you should because you have some faults, if you say "yes" it says that even you thought there was some correction needed.

8. "Can I have your email address?"
So they can send you endless long winded stories about themselves and their problems, when your phone is off the hook because you wanted a quiet day.

9. "Where did you buy that dress?"
This means that either they are going to buy exactly the same one, or that it's so ugly they wouldn't be caught dead in it.

10."Are you a real writer?"
I have no idea what I am, sorry. Does it matter?
