Excuse Me?! 9 Awkward Questions That Tend To Rub People The Wrong Way

4. How old are you?

This is really touchy. I asked a young woman I hadn’t known for more than like 20 minutes how old she was, only because she alluded to the fact that she was a bit older (despite looking like a 22-year-old). Before she decided to answer, I could tell that she was taken aback, and I felt a little bad…but she did tell us she was 30!

I would just recommend that if no one brings up anything that has to do with age, leaving that topic out of the conversation while getting to know new people is a good idea. And if you’re one of those people who gets bent out of shape about sharing your age, feel free to tell folks you’d rather not say, but please don’t turn up your face and lose your mind if you’re asked. It’s not that deep…we all age.
