My life since Age 18

greatlake:

“Where are you going to college?”

“Whats your major?”

“Where are you from?”

“When will you graduate?”

“Where are you going to work?”

“When are you getting married?”

“When are you having kids?”

“When are you having ANOTHER baby?” 

I hear you, except for the kids/baby part.  Although for me, it hasn’t been so much “When are you going to get married?” (perhaps because I haven’t dated anyone in almost 5 years) as it’s been, “So, you never got married?” (from a distant cousin, at my uncle’s funeral last year), or, “Have you considered becoming a nun?” (from a nun, at the same funeral). 

Can we all just agree that these kinds of questions are NOT WELCOME in small talk?
