Nairalanders plssssssssss, how can someone avoid nosy person or stop the conversation before it leads to unnecessary questions. This person is killing me with questions and l'm about to lose it. I mean why do people always wants to know everything about you angry

When someone comes on a little strong in asking questions about your life, work, or family or any personal matter, what would you do? What can l do to avoid this mess, l don't like being disrespectful  cry cry

Smile and Ignore him!

I get uncomfortable when people are nosy. A former neighbour of mine was extremely nosy i tried avoiding him and sometimes pretend like i didnt hear the questions.

Yeah just say you don't care to discuss that at the moment or ignore the question.
Some ask too much, some don't know when to shut up.
