Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsSingle women of any age, have you noticed that some people, when you make a comment about a man,
no matter what you say, will respond, Hes married?
Even if your comments are like: That man looks like a serial killer. RESPONSE from other person: Hes married.
You could substitute werewolf, zombie, etc. in the comment and get the same response.
I dont have the energy for Aargh, so, Sigh .

(21,020 posts)one thing I did notice when I was younger and single and a whole lot cuter than now...
When dealing with a man in just about any capacity, apropos to nothing in particular, they would invariably mention their wives.
I always had to laugh inside wondering if they thought I might try to hit on them and they figured they would put up a shield of immunity or something...
"Hey! Don't try anything, sister...I'm...married!!!"

(11,546 posts)but I do notice people trying to get me to join dating sites or "get out more". meh - not interested.
My daughter did have an experience recently where she was talking to this girl at a concert about the music. The woman tells my daughter "oh - well he has a girlfriend" (in reference to the musician onstage) and my daughter was confused by that. She said that she was talking about the MUSIC, not the musician's dating status.
