9 Things You Should Never say to a Single Lady.
...as written by brainFavvy
Doesn't matter if they are engaged, single and searching or single and free, there are some questions and comments you should never direct towards single women.
While some may take it well, smile and walk away, other women may find those comments really embarrassing and react negatively towards you. Paula Beaton of All Women Stalklists those comments that you should never make to a single lady.
1. "Are you ever going to get married?":Implying that someone is sad, lonely and desperate by asking them if they’re going to hurry up and get married is just plain rude.
2. "By the time I was your age...": I’m sure we’ve all had older women approach us and say this. By the time they were our age, they were married with two children and a third on the way. Society is changing, and young women are focusing more on their careers and their social life rather than just settling down and having a family, and there’s nothing wrong with this.

3. "If he hasn't proposed by now...": You should never, ever say this to a friend or anyone else. There’s some stupid rule out there which says if a man hasn’t proposed after 18 months, he never will. That’s simply not true!
4. "How long have you been single for now?": Don’t rub it in just because you’re loved up – you shouldn’t make your single friends feel bad. If you’re single yourself, even more reason not to ask, as nobody wants to be reminded of how long they’ve been single for. Being single at the same time as your friends is usually a lot of fun, as you’ve got girlfriends at hand for every event that crops up, and you can even go on double blind-dates.
5. "You need to have kids before you turn 30": Any mention of a woman’s biological clock is guaranteed to drive her crazy, and I personally hate when people start speaking to me about this.
6. "I don't understand why you are still single": This is something that people have often said to me , and it’s guaranteed to start the self-doubting questions and over-analyzing that we all do when we’re alone.
7. "Would you like to come to the cinema with me and my boyfriend?": Nobody likes to feel like a gooseberry, and whilst well-meaning friends have often invited me out with them and their other half, it always feels a bit awkward.
8. "You have so much free time, I wish I was single": Sometimes, when you’re in a relationship, you long for the freedom of being single. Likewise, when you’re single, you find yourself daydreaming about loved-up coupledom. But that doesn't mean someone should say this sh** to me, we would sure end up not talking to each other. Sure.

9. "You're single, I'm single, so let's have some no strings fun": Guys, this is one for you. Just because a girl is single doesn’t mean she’s always up for ‘no-strings’ fun. Some of us are actually looking for something a bit more meaningful, so just because we’re out at the bar with our friends, don’t make any assumptions!
