What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.

“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.

“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.

Do you enjoy cheating on your spouse? If so, why?

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.

If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:

French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.

Would you let your son wear leggings to school?

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.
