Whats a polite way of saying this to folks in Pakistan without offending them???
Someone just asked me how my fiancee will support me since he isnt working at a proper job yet and still in school. I mean how do you tell them its none of their buisness and id ont feel like discussing my financial plans with them?
Ufff nosey folks! 
Re: None of your buisness.....
I think in polite way you can say hard sentences in such a way that you are talking with the person understands what do you mean.In most of the cases people are very curious about someones personal matter and want to know every thing about them, very difficult to handle them. But there is a formula, try to answer such types of people in their style like when they show curiosity you reply them in a curious manner really it works.
Re: None of your buisness.....
just pretend you didn't hear their comment and start a new conversation, if that doesnt work then walk away.
personally i would say "if your so bothered about my financial affairs maybe you could chip in, afterall what are relatives for? and thankyou so much for being so considerate."
Re: None of your buisness.....
"pata nahi kaisey mujhe support karayga. U wanna give me money?" :D
Re: None of your buisness.....
Jias: i wish you would explain what the way is to respond to such questions. I mean i would never ask anyone such personal stuff so i didnt really know how the heck to respond!!
M-M and Sara516, lol that was hilarious! I wish i could say that to all the nosey ppl iw ill meet in Pak but my mom will perhaps make sure she has nice sturdy chappals ready for me if i responded like that! :D
but M-M ignoring them doesnt always work either. I tel u they can be persistent!!
Re: None of your buisness.....
I just expalin my experience, few months ago my mother-in-law was busy in seeking for next bahu and daamad (I have just one nand and devar left for marriage) in Pakistan, here one of my friends asked all the time about my in-laws proposals like when your devar will get engaged, are you finished your search for brother-in-law etc .
I really exhausted, whats wrong with her all the time she is punching my ear, I don'e like to interfere anybodys personal matter but to prevent myself from such types of cross questions at last I started to ask about her in-laws marriage, like when your nand will going to be married, are you going to attend her marriage ceremony....etc, finally she forgets to ask about my family.
Re: None of your buisness.....
i know paki folks tend to be nosey. and they tend to gossip about the lamest stuff. my dad's relatives are all in canada. and we have never been there but we have met them. and my dad talks to them almost every week. we tend to visit my mom's relatives in pakistan. my chacha's sister in law starting talking crap about us because we have never visited them. and we have never met this lady either. so know we are going to canada this summer, i dont mind since i like my cousins. but this lady doesnt even know why we havent visited or who we are but she still manages to judge us.
Re: None of your buisness.....
I usually say "Ye mera masla hay, main khud hi nimaT looNga"
Re: None of your buisness.....
that happened to my moumani. she just had kids and people would ask too many questions about them. and she felt like they were too personal.
but if you tell a desi person that non of their buisness they get pissed of. cus they wanna know all about you, but wont tell you anything about thier life.
Re: None of your buisness.....

"Allah provides"
Re: None of your buisness…
There is NO polite way to tell these ppl, tell them its non of thier bloody business…bug off.
Re: None of your buisness…

Re: None of your buisness.....

Re: None of your buisness.....

A smile accompanied with silence suffices...:)
