Oh, just the one my friend? Hmmm let me think. The number one question I hate being asked is what do you do for a job? I go cold inside because straight away people judge me when I tell them I am not currently working, you can see it on their faces straight away and I find it embarrassing, very embarrassing, I have to admit I have lied in the past about it and it saves me a lot of hassle, I just base it on where I used to work and that satisfys them, otherwise I would be treated with hostility, it is not my fault I am not currently working, but to others they think you are less of a man if you don't work and don't know the real reason.

We know what we are doing Wolfie. I just hate personal queries. They serve no purpose.

Hi! The one question I don't like to be asked is: Are you from Holland? Are you Dutch? Then I feel like a parrot! Explaining the same thing over and over again. I am from Canada, but have lived in Holland,Belgium,Saudi Arabia,Curacao, and now I live in Berlin. I don't feel like anything other than a person. Who is trying to make ends meet. Take care, Margajoe

Honestly there arent any questions that bother me....In fact I usually encourage ppl to "just ask" and am very willing to be open and honest about my life...

Maybe: why do you suck at everything? :) Nobody has asked that... Yet... But that's one question I wouldn't like to hear in the future either.

Hi balasri you have put me in stuation to think very hard. I guess i don't like to be asked, "what don't you liked to be asked?" I'm not kidding Because, really i had to go through all the questions those so people asked me. Person to person it varies -- who is asking what. May be if something my boss ask me I won't mind whereas if the same thing is being asked by a co worker I may not like. But in general, I think i don't like to asked what i don't like to be asked.

What would you like to have? As a child I remember hating this as a visitor. Complan or cold drinks? Complan I hated since forever and soft drinks my mom wouldn't allow so I would have to end up having nothing! As a kid that was too troubling. It was like giving up on the world! lol.. As a grownup the same question annoys me. I have started to avoid both for the diet thing! But have to agree on one in order to keep up with the decorum. What an irony! *laughs*

It will depend, WHO is asking the question, whether someone is asking the question on Mylot (i.e. on-line) or in real life. My answers would be different in both the cases.

"Why are you not pregnant yet?" Well, it's been a year since my husband and I got married and we are not trying hard to have a baby as yet and people keep asking . Why can they not respect our privacy .
