All the answers so far have been good but I'd follow it up with "Why do you ask?" Don't let a woman think that she can ask you a trick qualifying question without having to pay for it. 
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Point taken. These forums are just "type on a screen"; much can be done with delivery/presentation. But you better present those words very skillfully.Sun Tzu said:It's all in the delivery, my man. I can easily get away with this without even a hint of offense. Your mileage may vary.
Same rebut you used; its all about delivery. With the skills I've learned from this website, I could say I have stuffed pink elephants at home on my bed, and not do myself any harm (provided I C&F like a DJ ***** to undo the potential harm, lol)Replying with "I haven't found the right woman yet" is so predictable and AFC that I shudder to imagine those words ever leaving my lips.
Again, I agree provided proper delivery.Women absolutely light up when confronted with imaginative, ****y and humorous answers to questions like these. You must remember that it is crucial to reverse the qualifying process.
That's the exact same as saying "no one's qualified yet", just a little less original.Sun Tzu said:Replying with "I haven't found the right woman yet" is so predictable and AFC that I shudder to imagine those words ever leaving my lips.
Hors never "qualify" - only a virgin is worthy of a commitment!!!!!!!!Sun Tzu said:"No one has qualified yet".
And how do you tell if they are a virgin, Einstein?Last Man Standing said:Hors never "qualify" - only a virgin is worthy of a commitment!!!!!!!!
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Excellent. Perfectly stated.Francisco d'Anconia said:All the answers so far have been good but I'd follow it up with "Why do you ask?" Don't let a woman think that she can ask you a trick qualifying question without having to pay for it.![]()
Agreed. I just wonder if there's any such thing over the age of 28 anymore.Last Man Standing said:Hors never "qualify" - only a virgin is worthy of a commitment!!!!!!!!
Seconded. :rockon:azanon said:Personally, I would never marry a virgin. At the very least, I f***** her before I said "I do".
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

again this is why newbies should read and not post advice about **** they dont' know aboutoldsalt said:Translation: I am into you and I want to sleep with you but I need to make sure you're not some heartless bastard who's going to make me feel used.
You can have a lot of fun with this one. All you need to do is be playful. If you give her a serious response like "I'm searching for the perfect woman" you risk her interpreting it the wrong way, and she may dismiss the thought of being with you.
Pretend you don't know what she's asking. "What do you mean?" "I don't understand. What are you asking me?" She'll either keep pressing or get embarrassed. Eventually you can tease her for flirting with you. Which is exactly what shes doing. Women don't ask that question if they have not had at least one thought of bonking you.

They would never ask a man this question unless they are "surprised" that he is still single based on what they know already - which if a stranger, is based on looks.backbreaker said:...most men.. not all, but most men who are in their 30's and are still SINGLE, or better put, at the very least, not in a serious LTR, are deadbeats, jobless, Ewalk ugly, fat, slobs, pornkings, rapist, etc.
backbreaker said:again this is why newbies should read and not post advice about **** they dont' know about
if you are in your mid 30's... a woman asking you why are you still single, is pretrying SOME interest... but moreso she wants to know WHY THE FVCK ARE YOU STILL SINGLE. In other words...
WHAT BAGGAGE DO YOU HAVE, THAT NO WOMAN WILL SHACK UP WITH YOU si the correct ******** translation.

Dude.... I just got hit with the best brainstorm I have had in a while.. lol, I'm going ot make a free ******** translation website... you type in what you she said and it will spit out what she actually MEANS in plain english without all the jibberish.
anyway back to my point
It's not a delay, it's a chess move. She's asking for a reason, doesn't it make sense to know why before you answer? Guys who are quick to give an drawn out answer have a higher chance of putting their foot in their mouths.backbreaker said:however you are just delaying the unadvoiable for what.. 20 seconds? eventually you are going to have to give a reason why you are still single... and at the age of 35 ish.. it's actually a damn good question
Marcopolo said:As a guy in my mid thirties I am starting to get this from girls, in fact, one I was just chatting with asked me this exact question. I honestly don't know exactly what to tell them, obviously it is a sht test. Just wondering what a good response to this is.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
