Harassment

Its a difficult one, some people feel they have the right to ask and that you have to tell them, they're like a machine gun with their barrage of questions. Tell her you are choosing not to answer and that you're a private person, if she persists then ask her what she feels is the difference between privacy and secrecy?

That sounds like quite a sensible way of dealing with it actually. Thank you ️

You could see if it's pure noisiness or an awkward attempt to start a friendship, but turning the questions back on her, and asking things like is she married and how long etc? That was you remain polite and open to making a friend without being walled off.
