    I hate talking about myself, so unless I'm asked I won't tell.
    And even when I do tell, it's very little

    I think you've said too much.

    Basically most things because I'm intensely private. I share what I wish with those I want to know and then it's on a strictly need-to-know basis. I've always lived in cities and like the anonymity but live rurally now and find it hard to come to terms with people practically crawling up ones arse in their relentless quest for "news" :rolleyes:

    Poo time.

    I don't even like it when someone asks me a question, or attempts to get me to engage in conversation with them, from out side the bathroom.


    Feck off, can't you see in growing a tail? :mad:

    Ditto pissing time. The last thing I want to be doing is having a chat at the urinals when I'm holding my lad. Actually I hate urinals full stop.

    I was buying a couple of t-shirts a few weeks ago and the cashier started asking loads of questions. He asked where I worked, where I lived, if I was living with someone or if I lived alone. It annoyed me so much that I've decided never to set foot in the shop while he's there. I've discovered what day of the week is his day off so that's the only day I'll go into the shop.

    :eek:

    Wow, I don't think I'd be back at all. That's crossing the line IMO.
    I'm quite a private person.

    I think that depends on who is asking. Are they someone I trust? Are they someone who is on my side or against me?

    I would always try to respect privacy. If someone wants you to know they will let you know.

    Let people open up naturally.

    Family would be most private to me. I'm never very comfortable when I'm asked for example what my siblings do and if they are married, especially by work colleagues who will prob never meet them.

    ...Investigations by dire straits.

    Not so much what they do but some things yes.

    Also relationships and dating.

    If someone asks 'so are you seeing anyone?'

    I mean some of the time you can't even give direct answers to personal questions like that.

    I guess also though the opposite is not good and is a barrier to intimacy.

    My entire family of mom dad bro cousins aunts are on facebook.

    To be honest I know no one actually is interested enough to care though when you think about it.

    Everything which you see someone do, which you haven't been invited to join in on, or at least paid to view.. is bloody private.

    I hate people watchers. I despise them. Quit looking at people. Live your own lives you fcuks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,574 ✭✭✭whirlpool


    I don't mind talking about myself at all, but I think it's really rude when friends ask personal questions as casual as if they're asking me what I had for dinner! E.g: "So how much do you earn?" etc. At least have some humility about the fact that you're a nosey bitch!

    A taxi driver taking me to work last year asked me the same questions! Who do I live with, how long am I living there, what do I think of it. This wasn't as part of a conversation about anything either! He just started asking me! I gave him wrong answers. Creep.

    Technically, I paid to view that ;)

    The contents of the large purple box next to my bed, and stuff at the bottom of my wardrobe :D














    To filthy minded feckers - it's not what you think it is!















    Although... some of it might be :D

    Just about everything. Many people are too quick to surrender too much personal information online considering it never goes away. I'd be pretty sure there are 15 year olds today who will regret much of what they put out in public when they're 30.

    Clinton would never have been even able to try the old 'I smoked but didn't inhale' line if Facebook had been around in ye olden days, the pics would have been everywhere within minutes :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭we'llallhavetea


    to my friends and family, they know everything. i'm not a very private person, i dont get upset with people knowing things about me, my life is not particularly precious enough for me to hide it away. i would get a jaw on me if someone asked me personal things about family or friends though and would refuse to answer if i felt it was none of their business, thats just being a nosy ballbag.

    My emails

    My text messages

    Pictures/videos on my phone (unless I decide to show them to others)

    How much, and how often, I get paid

    Conversations about specific topics that only concern those involved in the conversation
