I'm a very private person in general, so I don't really like people to put their noses where it doesn't belong, but at the same token I try to follow that same advice and not overstep boundaries.

What I mean by nosiness (and maybe I should have made this more clear) is asking people you don't know very well those questions. I think (from personal experience) that if you know a person well, then by all means, ask away.

I tend to believe that asking people intentional, real questions about their hearts and lives is one of the best ways to love them, as long as our hearts are in the right place!
