Who does that?

Reading someone else's blog post where she talked about a sort of acquaintance finding out she was divorced and asking why. This goes into my "who does that?" file because seriously who asks someone they don't know well enough to know the person is divorced in the first place why they divorced? Hell even from close friends and family it can be a pretty intrusive question. Not saying I'm not highly interested in people's lives (ie nosey as hell) but sometimes silence is the way to go.
