- You don't owe anyone explanations: The reality is that you are not obliged to share any detail relevant to your life or your children with anyone else. If someone is asking when you are having a baby, or anything else related to your body or reproductive system or your relationship status, just be blunt and respond with a simple, “I don’t really want to talk about that."
- Explain and move on: Some people have no filter when it comes to hitting you up with their advice on how they would do things. In these cases, just answer back in a way that shows them you have heard what they are saying, but you are doing this your way and if you wanted advice, you would have asked for it.
- Turn the conversation back to them: You know what people love to do? Talk about themselves. And you can use this to its full advantage when trying to get away from someone's nosy questions. With just a few well-timed questions, you could essentially enjoy your wine and help with food prep while everyone just chats around you.
