[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don’t want to tell you their personal business.

It’s none of your business where they’re from, or why they do or don’t tell you any of their background.

Maybe their parents are state senators and they’re just trying to blend in here.

Maybe they grew up in foster care.

Maybe their parents were serial killers and you would know it by the state and their last name.

Maybe their family is super wealthy and they don’t want anyone to know.

Maybe it’s NONE of your business. [/quote]

So you've never asked a Hispanic Indian Asian or African where they're from?

I get asked all the time despite my family being dc natives since the 70s.[/quote]

We are first gen and I do not find any of these questions odd, at all. Why are DC area people seemingly so paranoid?  It is a point of conversation.  [b]Converse or don't. [/b]

How would someone do this?  If you don't converse than they think you are odd for not answering a "simple question"[/quote]

My point exactly.  People in the DMV get so worked up about the stupidest things.  People are making conversation - take part in the conversation in a non-petulant way, or stay in your damn house.  People really don't care what you do, but if you think most any innocuous question is nosy or whatever, you are going to have a tough life.

My SIL is like this - looks to take offense at most anything. Then wonders why she hasn't any long term friends.
