if you did not want to re-live painful times and PEOPLE who know nothing about your situation have badgered you in the past..and you just want to move on...........fatal does mean ruin, disasterous...and you felt it was alright to use that word...and when you get close to someone maybe someday...you can give him the papers to read about this horrific accident that you would not ever want to talk about because you have already talked about it at the time..a lot....and just want to move on......plus your family definately feels the same way!!! people are so nosy...they want you to explain so they can judge YOU!!!

Sorry for having to fill in the blanks in my mind, but your question is unclear to me. But if I am understanding your question, you shouldn't feel that you have to explain in detail anything that you are not ready to talk about. People will always judge you, but if you feel that someone is worthy of knowing what has happened in your life, maybe it is because you see that they may not be judgmental of you. But know that judgment is was we do. It's human nature. You too have to judge on who you are going to open yourself up to, understanding that healing or hurt can come from whoever you have chosen. That is something your heart and mind will tell you. And if you are wrong about them, don't worry because there will always be someone who will understand. You just have to find them.
"Fatal" is fine. You need to be stern when you tell nosy people that you do not want to talk about it. If they persist, limit your contact with them. No one is owed an explanation about anything.
Hope this helps.

Are you asking if you should use the term fatal when describing a situation? It implies death, and death doesn't always stop people from probing further. My suggestion would be to tell the person that you've experienced a great deal of tragedy and don't wish to discuss it any further. If they continue to ask questions, tell them you don't think you can continue to be friends (or whatever your relationship is with the given person) if they aren't willing to respect your right to privacy. People want to know the nitty gritty for two main reasons- one, we're just nosy and don't want to be left out of the loop, and two, we often think that knowing about a person's past will help us to understand them in the present.

Fatal means dead. We make too much of which is the "appropriate" word to use. If you don't care for someone's question, tell them to take a long walk off a short pier.

I don't really understand your question but if you feel it was right then it was. Shouldn't let the feelings and judgement of others bug you. People are mean.
