Do you say Bless You when someone sneezes?

Question

Do you say anything?

Answer 1

I tried to once, but the woman's husband got very upset that I did it, instead of him. "Was she a multiple sneezer?"

Answer 2

Actually I usually just say Bless. I guess I feel everyone knows the formality so its my kind of short handed courtesy. Its silly how long we hold on to these superstitious traditions when you think about it though- I mean doesn't this all stem from the Black Plague and if you sneezed everyone knew you were a goner so they said as a prayer for God to have mercy on you?

Answer 3

Yes I do say Bless You when I hear someone sneeze. I say it just about every-time I hear someone sneeze. I just sneezed right now. :)

Answer 8

Sometimes I say bless you sometimes I say god bless you, don't really think about it much though.

Answer 9

Oh yes I always say Bless you and hand them a tissue--I am a nice girl like that....see I can be good..ha

Answer 10

yes Bless you is what I always say

Answer 11

Actually, it's now a habit for me to say "Bless me" instead since I don't want to catch what they have... plus, it's hilarious to me that most people don't catch it and say "Thank You" regardless.
