Have you ever walked away after a conversation, or been driving home and thought:

“oh man, I should’ve stood up for myself” or “I should have said what I really felt” or worse still you couldn’t think of anything in the moment but you realise what you should’ve said afterwards.

It's a scientific fact that once you get engaged (maybe 2nd only to when you get pregnant) you’ll be on the receiving end of more uncomfortable dare I say STUPID questions than you’ve ever been asked in your entire life. And they can make you feel uncomfortable, they can be of a private nature, or quite simply no one’s business.

So today I’m here to help you decide the options available to you.

From the high-road, classy replies that neutralise the conversation so you can change topics OR if you’ve got nothing to lose, the sassy, spicy, sarcastic retorts that, for sure, burn bridges, but also let people know that you’re not playing.

And at the end of the episode, I’ll also be sharing some all-rounder replies that work for pretty much anything—responses that let you stay cool, calm, collected, and come out of it smelling like roses, no matter what’s thrown your way.
