I get tired of being asked this question. If I had 10 bucks for every time I have been asked it, I'd be a rich woman. I'm single because I am. It's not a life style choice. Just the way it is right now. I'm running out of creative answers to this question. Any one care to help?

Well if she only got $1.00 for everytime she heard the question she would only have 1/10 the fortunes.

So what makes you such a great person? and Just because you are a great person what is wrong with being single and taking your time finding the right person for you?

When asked why you are single just respond

"I don't date people that ask dumb questions. What else would you like to know?"

arch your eybrows and wait expectently

I think it's actually harder to find people online for relationships. You would think it would be easier because you have a lot of information from the person's profile but so far, I haven't found anyone on this site. It's weird because in RL I have no trouble at all finding people but I thought I'd try the whole online dating thing out and so far it isn't working out too well. Getting an ego check on the fact that maybe i'm not as good looking as the women i've dated in the past have shown.

sport guy You figured this out in ONE DAY? Amazing! Maybe the ego check is a reality check. Same thing? Look you're young, and while we're all for making things happen, sometimes patience pays off.

I've been asked this question a few times by dates. But usually that question is answered by themselves a few dates later.

I'm single again because I was given the best break of my life.
Freedom!
It's all good!

I get asked this question and I can honestly say this : It's by choice. I just got out of a long term relationship and it exhausted me.:)

You're a little bit nasty aren't you Ironic man. I've seen you make remarks like this on other threads. Been alone long?!?!?

Good answer Metrosexual. Honest, and yet humble, with humour like that, you won't be alone long.

If it's a guy asking, look him up and down then explain it's because you're holding out for someone whose parents weren't siblings. If it's one of your girflriends asking, tell her you have been scared off relationships by her stories. If it's your parents asking you can say it's because it is taking you a while to undo the damage caused by their example. In any case, smile brightly as you say it.

I think I would answer....

I pick my nose, fart REALLY loud, and belch uncontrollably...

Seriously, I always hate it when I'm asked that because I know it's meant complimentary, but at the same time it's insulting. It's not like you're going to tell them...all my ex's are idiots...or would you? No I was right "not"...trying to take the high road....hehehe

Creative reasons why I am still single.....

1)Because I haven't found anyone to stuff undead midget monkey corpses full of apples and onions with me in the moonlight.

2) The voices hated my ex. And the voices are always right.

3) I'm NOT single. I just got tired of waiting in line for time with my Mormon husband.

4) Well actually, you are one lucky guy! I just completed the last operation in my gender reassignment!

5) Ninjas. The ancient blood feud of my family caused ninjas to target any possible love interests. Would you like to go out?

6) My boyfriend and I had a run in with pygmy cannibals on our vacation in Arkansas. I made it out alive, he was the soup du jour.

I smile enigmatically and murmur: "you'll see"... not only is it fair warning but it is also bit of a humour test.
