The holiday is coming to an end and it’s around the time that friends who have been busy through out the year may bump into each other after a very long time. Often you don’t have conversations to hold and weird questions never escape. When we ask these questions we come across as rude and insensitive and leave the other person with a bad feeling after the conversation. Some of these questions may include:
1. Have you gained or lost weight?
In some cases this questions raises the reddest flag. The question of weight gain or loss is sensitive for many reasons. They might be sick or struggling with body image issues, keep your observation about their weight to yourself.
2. How many people have you had sex with?
It doesn't matter if you are dating or married to the person or not, asking about their body count will change the dynamics of the relationship and it is needless.
3. How much is your salary?
This is uncomfortable because you do not plan to increase their salary, so why do you even ask in the first place?
4. When will you have a baby?
Firstly, it is none of your business and secondly they might be struggling to do so and you are making them feel worse.
5. When are you getting married?
Just like the others, it might be a private struggle and asking almost feels like ridicule.
The general rule is not to ask personal and intrusive questions except that is the topic of conversation or the other party stirs it to that kind of question.
