I DON'T LIKE ANSWERING QUESTIONS

This you? Why?

Personally, I'm not secretive on purpose. It's a mixture of many things.

There's some insecurity behind why I don't like being asked questions. Sometimes it may be because I don't know what the person will go and do with that information, other times it's 'cause I feel they're expecting a monumentally awesome answer and the answer I have to give just doesn't measure up.

I don't like being asked questions because I don't want to lead people on by appearing too open. I don't know which way my mood will swing, and people are always disappointed when they meet me one moment and I'm chipper and then they bump into me 30 minutes later and I'm anxious to get away (this is a January 31st aqua thing, apparently).

Finally I don't like to answer questions because it's too tiring. People want a specific answer most of the times and the answer I have to give is usually the complete opposite. Why can't they just glean information like I do, I think to myself, using their eyes and ears?

Oh, and by the way, asking questions is the MAIN way I communicate with others. So a fourth reason why I don't like answering questions is because I don't like to talk about myself. Nothing good in the world is constant, not love, nor friendship nor trust, and to label myself would be hypocritical. Today I may be liberal. Tommorow conservative.

"you can't handle the truth" very much applies to a lot of people. so when i refrain ...i usually try to organize the best way to communicate the same idea but in a more socially accepted non-hurtful way. if what i will say has no point i usually keep it shut. in a heated moment however, all brutality releases. haha .

i dont like answering questions if i feel like the asker is just bored, nosey, or has nothing else to say. it plucks my nerves when someone ask a personal question over and over but when i give them an honest answer and ask them the same question they shut down, become unresponsive. dont ask me a question if u cant answer it yourself,, ugh lol im getting frustrated just thinking about someone doing that.

@1two3go You and me are >>here

I totally agree. Most people do want an answer. There is a right one to them.


Not everyone though. .

ok what if 2 aquarius are trying to get to know each other? Would the ideal be no questions?

Nah. They know not what to ask and are patient enough to wait for you to get there on your own time.

well my understading of this freedom air thing is rather than trying to get someoen to reveal something just wait and see what they start to talk about then they will choose their topic and reveal what they want to.. Im still trying to get my head around how it works with a PRACTICAL 😛 EARTHY 😛 example so it makes sense.


For example if you go into group of people and you take over the discussion, controlling it..all you will hear is the sound of your own voice. But if you are quiet then the others have the freedom to choose the topic and all sort of new ideas come forward in a spontaneous manner. Because you have no control over the topic ..it can flow naturally and you can learn new things. Things that you would have missed out on if you has not been letting others be in charge. is this the way aquarius think?

Ive got a similar idea from Buddhism. That if everyone is equal the freedoms and wishes of other people become important and you stop imposing on that trying to make it all about you. Ive been working on developing that

@ michellemabelle:

Yes. Somewhat.

Aquas get bored easily. A lot of times, and this is a secret here, they get bored of THEMSELVES (their ideas, point of view etc).

So they're pretty much whOres when it comes to ideas and will talk to just about anyone to learn something new about how human beings tick.

A lot of times this means shutting up while the other person talks about themselves.

And we're lucky because people LOVE to talk about themselves (or things they associate with themselves).

It's a headfuck, really: I'm constantly aware that I'm growing (and sometimes regressing) emotionally, mentally etc yet I'm so jaded about life that I feel I'm not that interesting a person, despite it.

It's like - I know I'm amazing (speaking plainly here, not boasting). I can do literally ANYTHING that I set my mind to, though impatience prevents me from becoming a master at whatever takes my fancy.

But to what end?

Aquarians soak up so much shit from people both good and evil that they become identity-less.

Everyone's equal, which means everyone's capable of good and evil. Everyone is loyal so everyone can betray you.

So who can you call a friend really? When your pals with a pastor and the drug dealer down the road at the same time?

What can you say makes you happy when you delight in kind acts yet are also open to cruelty?

You know, you just can't decide what side you're on because making a decision is pointless: your out-look WILL change.

Shit like this be swirling inside even the most happy-go-lucky aquarian's (you know) head.

Opening up is hard to do when you dom't even know who you are.

I don't really like it, either. Mainly because the questions people ask me are boring.

This is the exact way I see things.

But sometimes I feel like it is a wrong way to look at things simply because at least they're making the effort.

Not that I need them to but the fact that they did counts for something.

It's why I like to talk to strangers than friends or family: they get personal about themselves really quickly because they know you'll never see them again.

It makes me do the same in return because they always give you the same un-judgemental and more importantly un-biased opinion you give them.

In response to the original post...I don't like answering questions either

I'd prefer to voluntarily share my secrets/business vs. being put on the spot & being asked to

And I base how much I share with someone on how comfortable I am & how much I trust them.

If someone I barely know seems to be coming on too strong with the questions, yes I'm easily skeptical. I'm not only turned off by people who are quick & ready to tell all their business to fast, I'm also turned off by others who expect me to do so too

Sure, I don't mind asking others questions, BUT hey it's no my fault that others are so willing to share so much/everything. Just b/c someone else is comfortable being an open book doesn't mean that I have to be that way too.

Well Im earthsign and earth I guess is having a solid sense of who yu are..ie something you can grab onto. If a man is flying he could grab onto a hang glider. Then he can explore using something solid to give hm a sense of direction.. even a bird has wings.
So Id say you are someone who wants to understand people better..the question is...why? That why is the fixed thing if theres something thats fixed its probably solid also and since aqua is a fixed sign there must be somethings in there that are rigid and solid. Those things will give clearer picture maybe because you can use them to understand what direction you are going and maybe for a map. if you dont know which way is north south east or west you might feel like your just going round in circles and a lack of purpose...does this make any sense or am I missing the point 😛

The picture of the babe behinds you looks questionable (questionable in a netgative way) Surely Aqi thats not you in real life!?

meh. I don't know, just not the hot type of chick i have in my mind.

*blush*

I am a man with no face. This is only my mask.

My favorite Aqua Chick, Ruby Lin. Drools......

Awww...I am sure american females are awesome in their own way. 🙂


I don't know, maybe its part of the dressing package.

Please don't say that. 😢

I think all aqua girls are awesome in their own way. They are all smart and brainy. You don't have to be the prettiest to attract mens' attention. 🙂

YOU ARE NOT HIDEOUS. Personality counts more than looks. Don't beat yourself down. Trust me. 😉

Don't be over skinny though and don't stop eating. Men don't like skinny women. Always put your health first.

grinch is an idiot....

If you want to be beautiful, learn to appreciate yourself first.
If you only see ugliness in a mirror, you have to change your atittude.


The people who puts beauty above everything are shallow. they are like catwalk models, and those people aren't pretty at all.

🙂

Omg. I feel the exact same way! Is this an aqua thing? I just noticed this about myself too recently when guys have asked me simple questions, I get nervous and lie haha -- and I don't know why! It's so weird because I can easily say the truth and the answer isn't a big deal @ all, but I just like freeze up and lie. I know my first thought is always "Why? What do they want?" so maybe I lie because I don't want them to expect anything or be invited to do something I don't want to do lol. Idk. It's weird, but I'm glad to know I'm not alone! Haha

uhh hi im new here lol... does anyone know how to delete a previous message post?

Ok heres a question the aquas

If you asked someone a question and they felt u were probing and they got defensive what would ur reaction and assumptions be?

Nothing. I'll assume "No go area" and drop it. End of story (I won't forget, though).

Because I know I'll find out eventually.

That's the bi-product of accepting someone for who they are, secrets and all: they get comfortable enough to share stuff.

Vice versa in aquas case, too.

I hate answering to questions only if it's a person that I don't like at all. If I want to know someone I open up a little to answer the questions,and I ask them back a few questions , but I will not answer happily to people that I know will only criticize me for the answer,or if I already have a bad past with that person. 🙂

I accept this award - sniffsniff - with all my heart: I DID IT FOR YOU, GRANDMA!

*blows kisses and flashes Vaseline-enhanced smile*

It's funny, though, because as hypocritical as it sounds it isn't equal since (1) I don't judge people before I know them completely (2) other people do.

So while my questions are general "Nice whether we're having, huh?" other people are asking the kind of questions because they're trying to decide whether to make you a friend or not.

In other words, I rarely care about the answer, since I'll find out the truth much later whether we become friends or not, while other people need that to influence a "decision".

Which is pretty ghey if you ahks me (that's right, ahks. Because I'm hardcore like that.).

Also, this thread is back?!

Intermission:

Please do not take offense at this Aqua's but all I've heard through this thread is suspicion and "people are nosy why the fuck should I tell them shit" of course we're talking in generic terms here however, as someone who is massively appreciative of how your minds work you need to consider the fact that people are just so INTERESTED in you that they can't help but ask questions.

Aquarius seems to bring my inquisitive side to the fore more so than any other sign. Why? Because you have something to say!

I'm not for one minute suggesting you spill all your deepest thoughts to all and sundry just saying spare a thought for those lesser mortals who would kill to know what philosophies roil through that brain of yours.

🙂

I used to really not like answering any questions, but now that I've matured, I'm ok with most questions. If some asks something I feel uncomfortable with-then I just let them know and move on.

That was supposed to say *someone

I do. Right now I'm asking myself the question :

"Should I, a sign that is 90% mental 10% emotional, stick around to be psycho-analysed by a sign that is 90% emotional 10% mental?"

The answer to that isn't looking too good for ya, buddy.

Hey-OH!

ellen degeneres was on david letterman a while ago n she said she felt uncomfortable sitting on the side of the desk: the receiving end of answering questions. she said she prefers and is used to doing the asking lol

just wanted to share that. i thought it was funny and such an aqua thing 🙂

The United States was proud, once, too. Then one day it got a black eye from a guy from the stone age who lives in caves.
Last I checked, the US is a bit behind the 8 ball.
