What is it with Uber X drivers wanting to ask me so many details about my personal life?! I don't care to tell you where I'm from, what I do, and what my relationship status is!

I love having deep conversations with my uber drivers. I use uber for therapy sessions. I need a therapist but who has time for that. Uber is the solution.

@D1, that's interesting. I wonder if it's a regional thing...where are you from? You single? What kind of consulting do you do?

It's a mixed bag. I have had some uber drivers that I just put on my headphones because I don't want to answer questions and others i have had amazing discussions with. It can also be a vibe thing. their are some really cool Uber drivers though.

I don't think it's regional. I've had great conversations with drivers across the US, Europe, and Mexico. I'm in S&O.

Just post comments or make a report to Uber on their drivers asking about your relationship status and it will go into their training program on what not to ask.

It's annoying as fuq, but if you were single he was cute...😉

Same as D1, Uber drivers give me peace in life

I don't mind the conversations but they should stay professional

I always handle things like this as a business transaction. If he/she turns the wrong I will advise. You need to put your foot down.
