As we are now in October and the holidays are soon approaching, I'm sure a lot of us will get questions as to why we are still single or no longer with our significant other. How do you answer those who are pick-me's (female relatives especially) , bitter, smug or others who are genuinely curious? How do you react when your parents friends or maybe coworkers who say they can introduce you to their son/nephew/cousin etc?

“Just lucky I guess!” 😂
Well... seeing you and *insert name of their husband/boyfriend*.... I don't think I have the energy or patience for THAT right now."
I have too many animals to take care of already.
I say “why, so I can cook for and clean up after some dude and then be all pissed off cause he is unfaithful?”
my sister and mom both did that and the men in my family all do that to women so I shut them down one time. They have shut up since.
Most of my family knows better than to ask at this point. If they dare they just get the thousand-mile-stare from me until they get uncomfortable and change the subject.
i’m honestly tired of this question but i’m here for the comments because i’m trying to find a better response instead of dodging the question. i don’t really want to tell them most men are shitty and all they want to do is “pump and dump” you. also i’m finding that people really want to experiment with me because of my race and that’s it. makes it extra hard for me and i’m very careful
I start grey rocking. Or I stare them in the eye like an idiot until they feel uncomfortable.
"I'm a lone wolf" I like it bc it's the kind of answer men get credit for.
"Why ruin a Chateau Cheval Blanc 1947 by adding water?" A bottle of this runs for about $305,000, by the way.
"I have high standards." Then give them a knowing, pitying smile.
Nobody asks me. They've never cared, and never will, bc they think I'm too ugly. Not kidding, either.
