Has anyone ever asked you "Why do you ask so Many Questions?" Why
do you always want to know WHY? And, has this hurt your feelings from the time you were little, on up?

5. Because I feel I'm a victim....Always questioning and parents couldn't
understand it and tried to tell me to "hush up." They said, "stop asking so many questions, it annoys people."

It upset me as a kid. I tried to learn to not ask...it didn't work, and that's why I'm here. :-( true...

7. Sorry
I thought this was going to be a humourous thread. I didn't mean to make fun.

Inquisative is good, I suppose, you should recognize other people's space. Try speculation yourself. Engage people, don't interrogate.

2. Got it a lot, get it a lot
I ask because I'm curious about things.

And yeah, sometimes it hurt my feelings. It doesn't now because I've gained enough experience to know when to quit and/or when to just not ask the question to begin with.

Sometimes it kills me, though, to not ask. :-)

3. Yes, I do....
Consider it a gentle form of ribbing. It's okay, I rib him back. Big time.

6. Problem is... that does "society approve" of questions? I've had big
problems with "questioning." When does it go too far? I've held onto jobs by shutting my mouth..but in the end the jobs weren't worth it. My questions were more important. IMHO...anyway.

8. When I was a kid I got in trouble at Sunday school
I was always asking "why" this,and "why" that.I was 6,I didn't know it was the wrong thing to ask in Sunday school :shrug:

I notice that they still dont like that question though :)
