Because I have not met the right guy so far, a guy who is worth to have me. And I am still not that desperate to marry just any guy. My life is so full. Still there are lot of new things to explore, lot of new people to meet.

I know this question is annoying but I think, getting upset with the question and trying to explaining it to other, means that you are not happy with the situation.

I think if we are happy with our life, we should not even care to answer to others.

Maybe the best answer to people is: “Why not? What is wrong with being single?”
