[quote=Anonymous]Do people lie or it’s just not worth explaining because it’s not interesting? I grew up in one state and my spouse in another. We met in a third state and briefly lived in a fourth before we moved to DC. We live in NoVa. The convoluted history of where we’re from and how we met is a longish story but it’s really not that interesting. When people ask where I’m from or where I live, I try to gauge why they are asking and their familiarity with the region and answer appropriately. Are you trying to place my accent? Are you curious where I went to college? Are you interested in my commute or want to ask about neighborhoods because you are house hunting? Just making small talk about the logo on my hat or a sticker on my car? [/quote]
