Am selling some clothes and this lady keeps injecting very personal information into a very basic conversation about the transaction.
Like 'have you got the measurements for the length, I have XYZ and my memory is terrible, I struggle with numbers so much'
I give measurements
'Thanks I'm in a wheel chair so need to make sure it fits in gap'
Ok I can drop of at post office today
'I want it because it reminds me of my dead husband '
I mean what am I supposed to say to all this?
I'm also wary because I've had people fake sad backgrounds before to try and lower prices or get things for free or complain on recipes of good that they're disabled and I've ripped them off etc to try and get a free item
For clarity I myself am disabled and autistic Im on sickness benefits and that's why I'm selling my items, as I'm in a tight spot, but there's no way in earth I'm siclosing that to a stranger. And the emotional trauma dump makes me so uncomfortable and I don't know how to respond.
Why do people do this?
I've just been answering the questions and ignoring the emotional add ons.
