well, in my case, it used to be "when are you getting married?" it was during i was going steady with my long time boyfriend who is now my husband. i had to contend with 7 years of answering the same question all over again. now that i am married, the question is "when are you going to have kids?" well of course, we are trying, but we are also waiting for God to bless us. so is there a question that has become annoying to you? :-)

Amd yes 1 is not enought for some people and I am going to bet on this but they wont stop untill I have a girl if the second child is a boy they will still ask me.

In my case it would be "When are you going to have a girlfriend?" because I'm single. Another question would be "How much are you drawing for your salary?". I'm just wondering why people ask these questions.

i think it is rude for people to ask how much i am earning. do you think it is jealousy that pushes them to ask?

I have lots of them: Why is your face so red? Rosacea Why are you so white? Heredity What are you doing for a living right now? Often I'm unemployed, right now I work for a dog and cat food company part-time, so it's not so bad.

haha you have quite a handful to contend with. i just wish that some people could be sensitive enough, no? they just fire up questions even if the other person is already squirming. oh yeah, i am also asked what i do for a living. but it's okay, i just explain it to them. i dont find it annoying. i am into freelance work too.

He he he he...

I hate answering questions with obvious answers, or only answerable by yes or no, and those non-sense that is only being asked just to have something to asks. There are a lot of questions here at mylot that is obviously made into topics but not really gain a lot of responses because it is not interesting or simple ones that does not elicit thinking.

I look really young and even worse I have a very young voice. When I'm out with my oldest daughter (12yo) a lot of people believe we are sisters. Granted I had her when I was a month shy from 19 however people believe I'm still in my teens! Do the math, I'm in my 30s! So I often get the question: You're the mom? Wow HOW OLD ARE YOU?? I went to pick up my 8yo daughter from a birthday party a few weeks ago and whoever answered the door yelled: Your sister's here! I replied: No sorry, I'm her mother and the whole room went quiet except for the birthday girls' mom, open jawed in the corner managed to belt out the famost question. The silence was very awkward so I just replied: Old enough to have a 12yo daughter! I know in the long run, my youthful looks will have it's benefits however it annoys me like mad. When I order pizza, I'm always asked to pass the phone to a parent to confirm the order. When I answer the phone, people want to speak to my 'mommy or daddy'. I like to reply that they are divorced and live in a different province, who's number would you like first? I often get a HUH? from that and I hang up! LOL

I hate it when people will ask me if I already want to have a boyfriend. It's not that I am a man hater. I just don't want to get into a relationship right now. I am still studying and I don't have time to do that. :)
