i usually offer it to people because i think it's rude to eat in front of someone without offering them some. it's just something i do.
-
ony if they offer you one without taking one them self...haha.
-
i hope not, because if they are, i will cut them
-
Actually ive often wondered that! But i have to say i do eat a lot of gum myself and offer it if im with someone just out of politeness.
-
From me...aye..indeed.
-
Soometimes.... I often gave it to my students when they had questions for me during their private study time. Whew... what a saver!
-
Only if they're close enough to be smelling your breath, and don't take one themselves. It is good manners to share things if you're taking one yourself.
-
Not always, Sometimes they are just trying to be nice.
-
Generally no unless they are not taking a piece themselves or offering it to others. Then it could be possible they are trying to tell you nicely that you have bad breath. If they take a piece themselves or offer others besides you a piece they are more than likely just being polite.
-
Maybe, but I have always been told that if someone ever offers you gum or a mint then take it, just in case.
