Why is he asking me this question?

Question - (15 August 2011) 3 Answers - (Newest, 15 August 2011)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

A quick question for everyone.

I have a school age daughter who has learning disabilities and needs extra lessons at home. Why would my married male friend ask me if I have to stay with her when she has her lessons? Why would he be interested in my availability? Why would it matter if I have to stay with her or not? Why would he even care and why is he asking? Seems pretty personal a question to me...

He was probably just making small talk. It is a perfectly reasonable and expected question in such a situation.

mrg123 agony auntI dont know you know, I can imagine asking that question in the course of perfectly innocent conversation. He isn't necessarily inquiring over your availability is he? I guess it depends on the context of what he said, but I would be weary of reading too much into something. It's a question somebody could well ask who was just taking a friendly interest in something, not necessarily an indicator of ulterior motives.

Good luck :).
