So a lot of people say when a person is interested in you they will ask you questions about yourself. So im wondering if you ever consciously avoided asking someone those types of questions so you dont accidentally indicte you’re interested in someone when you aren’t?
No there’s all kinds of things I avoid but asking questions is how I talk I would not know how to communicate otherwise 😂 great I didn’t know I was leading anyone on 🤦🏻♀️

I really won’t ask someone questions if nothing about them interests me in any way.

Listen, when I’m not interested I DON’T ask you questions at all. I don’t care enough to do so and if you notice the girl you’re interested in getting to know does the same then buddy you need to move on.
I didn't even know that was a thing that girls do! I mean if I really don’t like a guy, it’s unlikely that I would be talking to him. (And I don’t just mean like as in romantically)
But I guess the answer would be NO. Because I’ve asked people questions about them, or their life when I didn't really like them, and I never even imagined that my asking them questions about themselves might lead them on.
I could answer this in different ways depending how I imagine the conversation but I said "yes" because I do go into a mode where I am trying to avoid leading somneone on or getting asked out and that mode does include minimal conversation and questions.
I never thought about how it might get misinterpreted! Damn. I ask everyone a whole bunch of questions, male, female, child, old people... I'm just curious, I actually feel neutral towards pretty much everyone :D Very few I actively like or dislike, 95% is neutral.
It's not that I avoid asking questions. More like I listen way more than I speak. From my POV I do ask questions but from the POV of someone who talks a lot, maybe they think I'm "avoiding" something.
No when I find someone interesting (not necessarily romantically/sexually just as a person) I'll ask them questions and if I don't then I won't. I might try and keep a conversation going if it's dead or so but I won't care as much.
Yep. I dont ask them questions about themselves if im not interested, but also because im a sucky listener with a bad short term memory thats not often curious rather talk about myself

Honestly, I've never thought about this. I still ask them questions about themselves even if I'm not interest in them that way.
of course i do. if i'm not interested in her i make it known. and i make it known more if she doesn't get it

Not a conscious thing if I ever do. I just go with the flow of the conversations.
When I come out of my shell from being shy than I will ask a girl questions to get to know her.
I don't do it so as to not lead them on, I do it so as to keep them from talking. Never ask questions of a boring jabber jaws.
Nope, asking someone about themself doesn't mean I'd leading them on
Not really. When I don't ask someone questions about themselves it's because I'm GENUINELY uninterested in them.
Nope
No. If you desire information, query about it.
