One possible way to curb it might be to smile and nod, keep it polite, but gently call out the repetitiveness of the exchange: ‘Haha Mary - you already know I got it at the thrift store!’ and walk away. Eventually you might just be able to do the smile, nod and walk away, heading off her attempts at ‘conversation’ before they get started. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2348000 Wed, 27 Dec 2023 19:29:02 +0000 Cardiff girl 2348000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There’s probably a reason behind it,Why don’t you gently ask her back why she keeps asking you and others?Some people are just socially awkward .Or alternatively,just hide behind the water cooler when you see her coming! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2347976 Wed, 27 Dec 2023 01:47:31 +0000 Indigoprint 2347976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Continue to give her the benefit of the doubt. She must admire your style and wants to learn from it. So you can help her by honestly answering if it was a Fab thrift find or a lucky TJmax. There are so many sources out there! I really appreciate the Finds of this website and have purchased items because they were brought to my attention I would have never known.<br /> Most people really do not intend to be annoying, when they know better they do better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2347968 Tue, 26 Dec 2023 20:31:10 +0000 kkards 2347968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmmm…does she ask what you’re wearing or where you bought it?<br /> Anyway the right answer is “thank you for asking, i love the color X or this sweater or these jeans (you get the picture) and it always make me feel good that someone has noticed” </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2347966 Tue, 26 Dec 2023 19:17:14 +0000 BrieN 2347966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My best response to any questions I don't want to engage with is <br />"why do you ask?" with a slight smile on my face.</p> <p>You can repeat it, over and over again if necessary.&nbsp;</p> <p>It deflates the topic and puts it back on them.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2347962 Tue, 26 Dec 2023 16:32:34 +0000 SW Ann 2347962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some people are socially awkward.&nbsp; They want to interact, but really do not know how.&nbsp; Or she's interested, and does not know the right question.&nbsp; You are handling it well....but I get it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/constantly-asking-about-what-i-wear#post-2347961 Tue, 26 Dec 2023 16:28:11 +0000 em 2347961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not personal.

She always does this. And my dislike is growing. She does this with every female colleagues in the office though. </p>
