[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an Army brat and spent a large chunk of time overseas. I graduated from HS at a DoDDS school in Germany. So I struggle with this question as well. Sometimes I say, "Everywhere and nowhere."[/quote] I'd think that the moment you say the phrase, "Army brat," it would put it into perspective for many people. I'd rather you say that, than "everywhere and nowhere." Many people are asking the question, "where are you from?" to find out about you, to see if you have something in common, to find out what you can talk about together. For those people, just give them a little more information so that you can move on in the conversation. For the "intrusive" people, surely that is a minority of people. But in life, we all meet strange and awkward people, so just be gracious. [/quote]
