Prying questions

A good way to answer someone who asks increasingly personal questions about whether you are going to have children is to give them too much information.
Well, I have to see if my relationship is going to work out since it's rocky because my mood destabilized after all the stress I had.
Silence.

Ha! I wish I would have been brave enough to do that back in the day when people were asking me if I knew what caused pregnancy...
People can be so douchey.

I always tell people "We just keep on practicing. We must be doing something wrong. What angle and/or position do you suggest?"

It turns out they definitely quit asking after that.

Nosy people drive me bats! Like laura b, people would ask me why I have 4 children. I would answer... I'm catholic and my husband is careless.

I know it kills me sometimes what people think they can ask. For me it's always, "How's your love life?" To which I always answer, "Imaginary." Since I'm actually dating someone for now, I'm not sure how I'll answer.

Laura, yes they can.
Susan, I will use that one next time.
Ananda, I like that reply!
Churlita, I'm sure you'll think of a good one.
