Do you find it rude? Esp, when someone asks why you are still single...
I used to get worked up about this. What I hated the most is when women judge single men thinking that dating is same way it is for guys as it is for women. That’s the worst. It’s not even remotely the same when all else is equal.
However nowadays I am just like “well the hell with them” and I do my own thing. I will remove myself from situations were I might get judged unfairly. Even family get togethers. If a friend can’t be respectful then they are not a friend. If a family member can’t be respectful I will tell them it’s not of their business and draw the line.
And no I’m not “secretly gay” or some other bs for being single at my age. If you want to make that ignorant asinine judgment then feel free to be a moron. But I won’t have anything to do with you. I got my own commitments in life.

When they imply there is something wrong with you because your single, then yes, I take issue with that.
I live a really busy lifestyle and sometimes it is hard to meet people, so I was single for years. It's not a bad thing and because I am comfortable in my own skin and not needy, I enjoyed it as much as possible.
I travelled to places that I wanted to see, made new friends on all my adventures, I made being single fun and interesting.
I mean I never had been asked “what’s wrong with you” 😳😅😂 but more of “how could someone like you be single” it’s a compliment yet I know people wanna find out if there are red flags lol. Just be honest and confident about it~
My reply to why am I still single is cause I haven’t found the right one

- u
these are two different questions... lol
I don't mind it when someone asks me why I am single... I just tell them why I am single
now, if they ask "what's wrong with you..." then I just I'm sorry? lol... It is a valid question although depending upon age there are 3 possible answers either it's your judgement, your ignorance, or something you can't fix.
In all 3 cases it remains possible someone might be able to help you if you tell them what you know.A lot of people assume everyone wants to be in a relationship and have kids. It's some sort of standard in society. When you are single or don't want kids. People assume there's something wrong with you because this is different from the society standard.
Nobody has asked me that. One time I was at a sporting goods store and a woman had her young daughter who needed a baseball glove. She said "Your a father arnt you?" Because she needed someone to fit it to her correctly. I said no and said there is probably a female salesman someplace. One showed up.
Nah, I find it as a compliment
What I do find annoying is when family tries to play matchmaker or asks when I'm getting married as a single person. THAT, is annoying as ****.
It depends on how they ask, sometimes it's actually a compliment like they are asking how it's possible other times yes because they say it in such a judgey way
I'm actually asked in the good way lol
I'm also asked how I'm still a virgin which I take as a compliment lolIf/when someone asks me that, I don't consider it to be rude. However it comes across somewhat narrow of them because they usually act like everyone is supposed to be married.
lol yes…. Or the “you’re still pretty, someone will come along to help you raise your child” 😑
I just tell them, "I'm really toxic."
I don't find it rude. There's a lot wrong with me and I'm actually more offended when people tell me I'm okay, when I'm clearly not.
The only times anyone has asked me why I'm still single, was because they thought I'm attractive. Seems kind of silly to find that rude.
i tell them i am not a relationship guy in almost every sense and even if i was girls that suits my tastes are too much of a rarity to even bother and i NEVER settle for things when i desire something.
Its annoying as fuck.
Yes i am. No need to ask me every fucking month
I don't accept societal norms on this issue. You can always say, none of your business.
No. It’s rare for people to ask me why I’m single.
no but it's probably bc i want to be single rn lol i can see why it can be rude tho
Not really. It's mostly older folks who don't understand how modern dating works.
Like my grandmother wouldn't understand why many women prefer fuckboys to a committed long term relationship.
Do you mean the what’s wrong with you part or the why are you single part?
