3 “Next year!”

“Next year!”

This may seem like a near future, but every year has its “next year”. This simple yet subtle response will surely leave your family speechless.

4 “Do you have anyone to introduce to me?”

Another cool way to handle this situation is to turn the question around and ask the person who is putting you on the spot. This also hints that you’re still single and could be seen as a request for them to introduce you to potential partners. Kill two birds with one stone!

5 “Start preparing your wedding gift for me. I’ve chosen the wedding date, but I haven’t decided on the year or the perfect bride/groom yet”

I’ve chosen the wedding date, but I haven’t decided on the year or my partner yet

This response is playful and humorous, creating a light and relaxed atmosphere for everyone. It’s definitely worth considering!

6 “I want to stay with my parents”

“I want to stay with my parents”

While this response may not be as cool as the others, it showcases your love and dedication to your family. Family bonds are sacred, and those who hear this response will likely understand and support your choice.

In addition, there is a special day called Black Day (Black Valentine, Black Day) derived from the romantic elements of Red and White Day, dedicated to celebrating singles who haven’t found their perfect match yet.

These witty responses will help you navigate tricky situations with ease. Hope you feel empowered and ready to tackle those questions with confidence! Best of luck!
