I’ve recently worked with a covering colleague who asked a lot of questions and the only two I thought were too far were her asking specifically where I live (I told her the town and she wanted more detail) and asking when I thought I would get married (I’m not engaged or even in a relationship). As long as it doesn’t go into “deep questions” or “personal information” I don’t mind it, basically avoid topics you would only discuss with a close friend or that could be seen as judgemental (like when someone thinks they will get married, I don’t think she meant it that way but it still felt weird).
I lie to nosy people
