Often in life we have to hear tactless questions from friends, neighbors, grandmothers sitting on benches at the entrance. Often asked out of simple curiosity, they can ruin your mood for a long time. How do you respond to such questions?
Sometimes the question “Hasn't you got married yet?”, But being asked to a lady over 30, who does not have not only a groom, but even an admirer, can cause her an attack of irritation or seriously upset her and hurt her.
Don't start making excuses. By and large, your personal life does not concern the curious at all. Do not respond with rudeness or aggression, showing that you have been hurt. It is best to laugh it off in this situation, saying, for example, that the knight's horse limped, so it takes so long. You can start talking about all your unhappy relationships, while giving free rein to fantasy. Usually such a confession shocks the interlocutor, and he realizes that he has crossed the boundaries of what is permissible by asking such tactless questions. Finally, it's fair to say that you don't want to talk about it.
A good way to solve a problem is to answer a question with a question, while at the same time bewildering the interlocutor. Make him feel like he is being interrogated. It is unlikely that after that he will want to delve into your personal life. Don't be afraid to offend the person if they do the same to you.
It happens that a person asks a tactless, inappropriate question for you, just without thinking that it might be unpleasant for you. If you know that your interlocutor really has such a habit, do not be offended, but simply ignore his words. Don't look for hidden implications where there is none. You yourself can get into such a situation, blurting out something out of place.
