aunties and their questions!!!!!!!!!!

Even when u've gained weight they say "uff beta kamzoor hogayi ho" (to become u're fav aunty)

When u show-up wearing glasses they're right there to offer u 101 "totka's"

If u're wearing a solitare, "aap ki baat pakki hogayi hai Mashallah"

When u're the same height "dekho kitni lambi hogayi hai"

When u have colored eyes "aapnay lenses lagayi hain?"

Grrrrrrr!

Re: aunties and their questions!!!!!!!!!!

It gets really annoying to me when they get started at the cooking bit. When i say i dont know how to cook they all go"haye, waise ab siikhni chahiye betha.. ab aap ki umar bari hogai hai" or "thodi thodi cooking shuro karni chahye betha." .. Like its any of their business.

this thread is funny though, loving the responses!

Re: aunties and their questions!!!!!!!!!!

^ and i get to listen this
ab cooking nai seekhni to aglay gher kia ho ga lol

Should've said: aglay ghar lazeeza aur shaan kay pakwaan say kam chalaoun ge.

^ NO to that u reply "mein asay ghar jaongi hi nahin jahan 4 naukar na hon!"

Re: aunties and their questions!!!

To all ladies in this thread: You arleady are or soon will-be an aunty. :chai: So do yourself and the rest of younger girls a favour and not be so-damn-annoying and nosy. Problem will be solved :slight_smile:

Yours truly,

SU

Your good Gina, love your wit. :smooth:

well they sure are on the right path to auntyhood [annoying, bothersome, nosey]…i don’t even want to imagine how they will treat their DILs n SILs…abhi se itni nakhreeli & zehreeli hain to baad mein kia hon gi…Allah bachaye inke shar se.

Sometimes I think, if you give their nosy stupid questions an equally stupid response, they'll be so shocked by the ridiculousness of your response that they'll become speechless, and that's your signal to walk away.....or they might walk away first.

I'm contemplating that if the next time an aunti asks about me not working, I'll tell her, "I make more money from home." Then she'll look surprised and ask what I do at home. I'll tell her, "I get paid $5000 every time I get asked a nosy question about my personal life." (Now that's a satisfying answer).

Come up with a dumb response for their questions. If they are fat and ask, "Do you know how to cook?"....Look them up and down and say, "You really think more food would be the best solution?"

Or id she bombards u with questions "When do you wake up?" "Do you know how to sew?" ** **"Do you clean the house?" Say, "Didn't know you were lookin for a maid. Sorry can't help ya there."
**
If she asks you, **"How come u don't have a baby yet?"
Ask her how much she weighs. Or ask her how much money her husband makes and gives to her on a weekly business. Ask her how steamy her LOVE LIFE is. And if the Aunti gets offended and says, "That is a personal question, badtameez" Then you scream at her "So are my baby making plans!!!!!"

Or if she asks "When are you having a baby?" ** Start blushing and smiling and say, **"Oh I'm so flattered at your desperation for knowing every detail of my personal life. I feel like a VIP. Well, since I know that you'll probably die if I don't inform you of my baby plans, i'll make you a deal. If i become preggers, you'll be the first person I tell. It's the least I can do make your dull life a little more interesting."

Or here's an idea. Come up with a ridiculous single response to use for EVERY **question. That response could be "family secret." Examples: **So do you know how to cook? "Family secret" What time do you wake up in the morning? **"Family secret" So do you have any friends? "Family secret" **So what are your hobbies? "Family secret". She'll think u're so weird, she won't bug you again!

Of course most of us are too RESPECTFUL to go around harrassing people in general, LET ALONE AUNTIES, with nosy questions. SO we just end up giving a polite vague response and making a getaway. All these brilliant cheeky responses come to us WAY LATER...when the auntis have left. LOL!

yeah...bhootnagar ki malika hain na jo char naukar chahiayen inko...Allah ne 2 haath paoun kis liey diey hain...?

:rotfl:

:omg:

Mein bhi aisa hi kuch soch rahi thi… :slight_smile:

with all due respect...if someone is to treat your own mom that way...what would you do? i'm sure your mom is the coolest in the whole of Antarctic...but then these aunties are also moms of someone out there [whether they know or don't know is a different story].

if they are nosey then it won't kill you or others to show some patience and respect. is this how you react towards your own parents if they become nosey or start to ask you questions you think are stupid..?

Re: aunties and their questions!!!!!!!!!!

^ redvelvet, I thought you were smarter than that. :(

and saieen, good point again - all of our mothers have asked others silly questions at least once in their lives... keep your own mothers in mind ladies.

k guys while u r at it might as well solve my problem too.....

there is this aunty i know.... her daughters r my frds.... not like friend friend bus like in hello hi kinda stuff.....

well this aunty is so annoying cuz whenever i wear something new or different she'll bug me with questions ke kahan se leya hai? ketne ka hai? blah blah.....

and then next time when i see her in masjid i'll notice that she bought the same dress/shoe/coat/hang bag/jewllery....

oh and i dont wana tell her cuz who want someone to copy her
what to do ? :(

hmm to your problem there is no honest answer

whats so bad about someone asking you about something you bought? you should take it as a compliment that someone is interest in something you bought and that is an indrect way of them complementing your choice and selection. but noooooo....jis dukan se hum ne buy kar liey Allah karay woh mere dukan se nikaltay hi jal sar ke khak ho jaye ta ke koi aur dosra wahan se kuch bhi buy na kar sakay...ameen...and then go to the masque and pray 2 nafals and ask Allah to give you reward points for your good deeds.

yahan sab hi jhoot-masters hain...PHD ki hui hai. mashAllah...aur islam mein hai ke mazaQ mein bhi jhoot na bolo...idher to landay ke bazar ki terhan jhoot bola jata hai...

^ ager jhoot bolna hota tu kyun pochti main .....

i dont wana lie and that too in mosque..... toba...

Saieen: well koi complement ki tarhan poche tu aur baat hoti hai mager koi es neyaat se poche ke nahi hum bi esi hi cheez buy karain ge it so weird.....

i dont mind ppl wearing the same stuff.... but when they purposally ask u so they can buy the same thing ... its annoying... :(

es main good/bad deeds ki baat kahan se aa gai???

SU, and Saieen,

What I wrote was meant to be humorous....at least to me anyways. If you read the last part of my post, "Of course most of us are too RESPECTFUL to go around harrassing people in general, LET ALONE AUNTIES, with nosy questions. SO we just end up giving a polite vague response and making a getaway. All these brilliant cheeky responses come to us WAY LATER...when the auntis have left. LOL!" That implies that I don't go around giving cheeky responses to Aunties and their nosey questions. I simply give them polite answers and go about my way. All the "smart answers" I would have liked to give come to me in my own privacy after the auntis have left. Being single (especially), I fully understand the unfavorable consequences that would result if heaven forbid I do give a "smart answer." But it doesn't hurt to exaggerate a situation and get a laugh from coming up with silly/ ridiculous (although impractical) possibilities.
