So far my answer are only this

I wonder?
doesn't matter?

any idea?

Answer 1

Be honest. Say "I'd rather not answer that." They may be curious why you wouldn't answer their question, but if they are a friend, they will respect your privacy and they will know you have your reasons.

Answer 2

When someone asks you a question that is none of their business, all you have to do is look them in the eye with a 'You've got a lot of nerve!' look on your face. Then just continue doing, or talking about, whatever you were before the question was asked.

People who ask questions like that are rude! You don't owe them a poite response.

Answer 3

Well my mother passed two years ago this month, when people ask me i tell them what she died from. but if u dont want them to know say now is not the time to talk about how my mother died, or u can say dont ask why.

Answer 4

Just say I would rather not talk about it and move on to other things

Answer 5

You could say something like....I don't talk about that...or in Chicago I hear they'll say something like.....how about them bears!...that, from what I hear means...I'm ignoring you, not answering...makes no sense to me personally, but I'm not from there...

Answer 6

Just say that you would rather not talk about it. I know, easier said than done.
