A one-of-a-kind workspace- a space for you to vent, discuss, laugh, jiggle (oh you will jiggle) & find a common ground for all crazy experiences that we women have gone through/ going through/ have witnessed others going through in their corporate workplaces. I have a whole lot of them to share be it screwed up bosses, annoying HR experiences and all things work related which make us go arghhhhhh and I’m sure you have lots too!! 😉I promise you-nothing will be mundane, nothing will be sugarcoated or filtered and nothing will be ‘sanskaari’! Hop on with me on this quirky, thrilling, mad roller coaster of most obnoxious experiences – coming from me sassyhrlady- a HR professional with 15years of HR aka “Humor Raised” experiences!

today a coworker asked me what my plans for valentine’s day were. we’re not friends, we’re not even close coworkers. how did they assume it was okay to ask me a personal questions about my dating life? im not seeing anyone at the moment, but i don’t like the idea that my entire office is in on my business. am i being over sensitive? or was i right to get a little defensive?

It's understandable to feel uncomfortable when a coworker asks personal questions about your dating life, especially if you're not close. You're not being oversensitive; it's natural to want to maintain privacy at work. It's okay to politely deflect the question or simply say you don't have any special plans. Setting boundaries around personal topics is important to maintain a professional environment.

You were absolutely right to feel violated of your personal life. But even you must understand that this is the valentine's week and everybody's curious about people surrounding themselves. Maybe they even wanted to try on you 😉

Honestly I feel that you are overreacting coz he just asked about your valentine plans. you could have just replied by saying I would not like to share or no plans. he was just trying to ask your plans. nothing else. I don't think that he had an intention of invading your privacy.
