Excuse Me?! 9 Awkward Questions That Tend To Rub People The Wrong Way
7. Are you going to the gym?
I’ve been guilty of this honestly, and I didn’t realize it until someone else explained why questions like this piss them off. When a friend of mine decided to go on a health kick, eating better and working out almost daily, I took notice and cheered her on. But when I noticed that she wasn’t going as often, I didn’t realize until later that my constant questions about “Are you going to the gym tonight?” and jokes about her cheating on her diet for fast food were intrusive and putting unnecessary pressure on her when she probably was already putting enough on herself. That wasn’t my place or my business. So unless you’re trying to hit the gym with them, you shouldn’t ask and become their unofficial trainer.
