hai, these things don't bother men. These are the things which we use to make the girls talk with us. Even though i ahven't tried it, we see this lot in movies. Girls get irretated when everyone uses the same technique. All of them may not be asking time just to speak, some maybe asking it really to know the time if they don't have a watch. If a girl asks me this , i will be pleased to tell it. * so by the way WHATS THE TIME NOW ??

Ha ha ha, what is there to think or feel, I just tell them what is the time and walk away without even giving a second glance, but.....you may have to wait and look at the person, if he or she is asking for time again and again. Then you know the person definitely want wants something more than time

I don't wear a watch or carry a phone and I have never, ever asked anyone the time. When people ask me the time and I say I'm sorry I don't know, some of them give me a real bad look, as if they don't believe me, or maybe they think they are the only person in the world who does not wear a watch. If someone stops me to ask for directions or needs help in any way I will always try to answer, but if people want to know what time it is they have to find out some other way, like buying a watch or looking at a clock, it's no use asking me.

I always bring me my watch so if somebody ask for the time I just answer and nothing more and not looking at the person again.

Dear friend, I had not felt any discomfort unless it is not asked often or unless I do not have a watch or unless that stranger is not normal. Also many stangers do asked me this question I do also told them the time. Moreover I too could check the time and it come irritating when these types of people often askes and if I am not in better mental condition to answer them. But normally I do not feel any discomfort. As few times I personally I too asked time to others as I had forget my watch.

hello ramyashreesk, how would I feel about it? Nothing. I doesn't bother me at all. I just respond telling the time. Maybe he doesn't wear watch because he doesn't have money to buy one. Or maybe he just don't like wearing watch at all. There's nothing wrong about asking the time and it's just being polite also to respond to the person when he asks about the time. Have a great day!
