when someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, What do you do?

Answer 1

Ignore the question, dodge it, or change the subject.

"I really couldn't say" implies incomplete knowledge, but can convey, that something is preventing me from discussing that question.

I can also tell the asker that the question is either inappropriate or that I really don't want to talk about it with them.

Answer 2

It depends how close I am to the person. Just an acquaintance - I'll change the subject. But a close friend or family member - I'll make myself give them a straight answer, because I'd expect them to do the same. I'm a little too blunt and honest, but that's not always a bad thing.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6
