Don't you think it's rude when people ask who you're texting?

Question

I hate when my mom asks me everytime she sees me open my phone. Sometimes I'm not even texting! I may just open to look at my calendar!!! But other people will ask me or even try to peek over my shoulder. I think that's invading my privacy. I mean its not like I'm talking about anything bad to my friends, I don't understand why people do that.

Does anyone else have this problem???

Answer 1

ya and i do think that's its rude.

love your name by the way!

Answer 2

Don't text when others are around and you'll solve your problem. People are way too preoccupied with their phones............

Answer 3

aha, they're rude

i guess they are just curios

Answer 4

I don't have that problem, but it's not really their business. Next time they say it be general, say "i'm texting a friend" at leaving it at that.

Answer 5

I think it's rude to text when your in the company of people.

Answer 6

If you are under 18, or live in your parents house, they have a right to know who you are texting.

Answer 7

Yes i have this same problem. And yes it's very rude.  

Answer 8

If you are in the company of other people you are in "public" if you want privacy, don't text in "public"

Answer 9

ummm...i think its pretty obvious. Don't text around others...it's just like talking on the phone in company of others....if you don't want them asking, don't do it.  

Answer 10

Maybe you shouldn't be texting while you are talking to other people and that wouldn't happen.  I hate when i am trying to talk to someone and they are just staring at their phone or texting away.  The phone can be put down for a few hours, it won't kill you.

Answer 11

YES!!! YES YES YES!!! my mom does the exact same thing!!!! and also, even when i just say, someone, or no one, she presses it, and like forces me to tell her!!
