I hate when people ask me what's new or what's up? because then it makes me remember how uninteresting my life is. x.x

I also hate being asked, why do you look so serious? even when I'm totally fine. My natural expression is just bored, I can't change that.

I have a similar problem. People often ask me why I look like I'm about to slit someone's throat. Oh, and my friend asked me why I look so dramatic when I listen to music once.

Obvious questions get me the worst. As stated above, I also hate being asked what I am doing when they see me in the act. Or if I am doing something and it's like, "Oh, are you doing 'x'?" No, dip****. You are clearly seeing things.

I also hate being asked why I dress or color my hair a certain way, as if it happens on accident or if it's symbolic. No, I just ****ing like it. Same with when I had piercings or when I get a tattoo, if you need to ask, then you really don't need to know. People dress and look in ways that make them feel most comfortable. It's not a mystery.

" Who is your crush?,"..i really hate to answer this one..
Yeah I agree with that one, I kinda feel like crushes are for 12 year olds and Tumblr users.

For me, the one question that I hate answering above all else would have to be if someone asked whether I was single or not. That question alone makes my day of rainbows feel like the day where I just found out that my mother died. And yay for sharing way too much personal information about myself.

"why do you have a lot of guyfriends?"

"about that guy...is he your boyfriend or something?"

"why do you ask so many questions? don't you even listen?"

i got more but someone mentioned "what are you doing?" and that is also a question I hate.

"Are you okay?"
I don't know. I'm sure this one is said with kind intentions. For me, it implies that my mental state is not okay. It implies that there is a problem, and it triggers and often exacerbates the problem in my mind. I'm such a hardheaded and prideful person that I don't like discussing my thoughts in real life. I don't believe that anyone would know my mind better than I do. People who speak this phrase to me don't really know what's going on with me lately because I failed to verbally express even 3% of it. I'm not a talker, and if they seem to think something's wrong already without me not revealing much, I have to wonder if I am already tenfold in the deep end. If you want to cheer me up or check up on me, buy a pizza for me. ; ;

"Why aren't you interested in anyone?"

This is really none of your business, so please don't ask. Also, similar "So who do you like?" questions irk me the same way. I've tried explaining it to people before, but they don't get it, so I've given up on them understanding.

Lately I've been getting really irked when people ask about my plans as far as college, career moves, and anything really big like that... :\

Mostly because I'm not 100% settled on my current choice of further study (the pressure's on since I have my Associate's and it's transfer time) and also because of insecurity because I have relatives and friends who are three years my junior entering college and jumping straight into their program. Also because most of the people from my high school graduating class are entering their senior year of college now.

Wow, I really got into that a lot more than what was necessary, lol.

Just don't ask me what I want to do with my life. :(

When I'm with my brother, Michael, and people ask "Are you guys twins?"

I hate it cause I seriously can't see how we look that alike to be mistaken for twins. Plus, I hear it way too much.

I also hate the questions "Do you have a girlfriend/boyfriend yet?" , "Are you seeing somebody? , "Why aren't you dating anyone yet?" and "Why are you still single?"

I hate those questions since I've really never wanted to have a romantic relationship before and so it's awkward always saying "I'm just not looking for anyone atm." And also cause I like guys and not girls as much, and only a select group of people know that, then it's even weirder.

"What are you listening to?"
I dislike this question just because I'm embarassed of my music around some people lol. Like when I'm listening to music at school people will just ask me this.

"How have you been?" / any variation
I hate these types of questions because the standard response is always "good" and I'm not comfortable answering the opposite because the people who ask me these questions aren't usually that close to me (ex. my parent's friends, etc). Plus, questions with already set answers are boring.

I really hate this question too, because the only reason people think my younger sister is my twin is because she's taller than me. I've actually gotten asked "How does it make you feel that she's taller than you?" I mean... what? Only annoyed because people like you keep commenting on it lol.

"Have you thought about your future?" "Are you going to spend your whole life doing X or Y?" "Why don't you have a girlfiend?" "Why are you a virgin?"

**** off, it doesn't matter to people how I should spend my life. I might hate it as well, but it's my own decision.

I hate always having to answer questions about either why I dated someone or why we broke up. Most of the time I don't even know the reason.

I hate this too, for a different reason - if people ignore it, act like I'm not upset, then I can get over it. The second people start recognizing it it gets worse and I can't stop myself from crying and it's so embarrassing and just leave me alone people god

I feel my brother and I get asked this question only cause we're about the same height, and both have similar facial hair... -___- I hate the "are you guys twins?" question so much!!
