'Why don't people like you?': 20+ cringeworthy questions people were asked in mixed company

There are some questions you just don't ask people in public. But then again, some people have absolutely no filter and don't necessarily take social cues into account when assessing whether or not it's appropriate to inquire about what's on their minds. In theory, these people are unapologetic and entertaining; in practice, they are just extremely uncomfortable to be around, whether it's at a family dinner, on the street, or in a workplace environment.

If you ask any of the people on this r/AskReddit thread what uncomfortable questions make them cringe, the responses vary from questions about their acne to questions about the curious gaps on their resume. The major takeaway here is that it doesn't matter if you're an employer, a close confidante, or a parent. Some thoughts should be kept to oneself and some people's privacy should remain sacred.
