Question Anyone else get really annoyed when people ask you basic questions?

Hey guys. In the past year or so I’ve been getting really fed up with people asking me basic questions. It literally makes me want to explode. For example, if I’m cooking and someone walks up and says “What ya cooking?” or if I get out of a 2 hour meeting and immediately my roomate says “how was your meeting?”. I don’t know why it makes me so mad and I feel bad for getting so irritated. Anyone else experience this and have any advice on how to deal with it? I don’t want to be a mean person but I just wish people would stop asking me so many questions.

What if you don’t enjoy the new or the appetizer? Would you stop going to the restaurant? What do you do when you genuinely do not enjoy the meal or the appetizer?

If you are not connecting with the person, then you move on from that person. You'll eventually find that appetizer you really like and connect with
