Feel a bit disappointed

I understand . I really can't figure it out why she suddenly kept asking me so many personal questions. This is not like a normal communication, especially we haven't contacted to each other for a long time. If we often contact to each other, then it'll be alright.

This is also what I think and hopefully she is OK. Unfortunately this is not a pleasant contact to me this time.

@youless I'm sure it isn't pleasant. Good luck.

@annierose I hope this is not her reason. After all, she works in a bank and namely her income shall be fine.

You are right. It's really so strange to keep asking me very personal questions. This is not really like a good start to have a conversation.

@youless I remember a former classmate who messaged me a long time ago. At first, I thought he just wanted to reminisce about our high school days. But, later on, he asked me for money, which according to him is for emergency purposes, so I helped him out. After that, though, he kept asking money again for different reasons. That's when I started to feel disappointed, because it seemed like he only reaches out when he needs something and not because he genuinely cared or wanted to reconnect. AT the end, I just decided to stop talking to him.

This is life...

This is my weak point. Sometimes I am considerate and polite. Such as she asked me questions about my son and I had to tell her that he would start his doctor study after bachelor graduation next year. But it's not finished and she kept asking me whether he will have income during doctor study, whether he will be hired after doctor degree graduation etc. Finally I had to tell her that I really don't know as he has not started doctor study yet. And she asked whether my husband is retired. I had to tell her that males will be retired at least after 60 (and actually my husband is just older than me 4 years and she shall know it's a long time for him to be retired). Questions like these and it really makes me feel uncomfortable.

@youless - I would also be uncomfortable, I would say that she was not at all polite asking so many personal questions, this is odd.

You are right.

I also wonder this. And it is not only one personal question, but many personal questions.

I answered most of them as I didn't know how to avoid it.

This is a good question. I haven't thought about this. But I think it's her since she mentioned my husband and son etc.

I agree. I also have such kind of experience.

This is how I feel.
