That depends. Are you a guy or a chick?

[Senator Pardek]

This is my stock response that makes the jaws hit the floor: "I don't live in either Vermont or Hawaii".

[thesharkboy]

How about this:

I just haven't found the right species yet.

[Ipse Dixit]

My stock answer to all such personal questions that I find slightly intrusive: "Why do you want to know?"

[Slush]

when i find someone I love and want to make the commitment? Is it harder than that? Or maybe, nunya bidniss ...

[BibChr]

Well, if they're asking because I am living with a woman I've not married, I'd say, "Oh, marriage is for people with morals! I just want sex on-tap without binding commitment and responsibilities!"

If they're asking because I am living with a woman I've not married and we have children, I'd say, "Oh, marriage is for men! I'm just a little boy who's passed puberty, and I've found a woman stupider than I!"

If it's neither of the above, and they're just being nosey, and it bothers me, I might say, "No less than a year after the last time someone asks me that."

If it fits, it's yours.

Just say "you are too young to die." I still use it...

[FormerLib]

"To whom?" might be a good response.

[JRandomFreeper]

My wife keeps asking me the same thing.

Oh, I'd just tell them that they don't allow you carry firearms in Ireland....so I'm waiting for the laws to change, and my dad to get a shotgun! *L*

[MadIvan]

"So when are you getting married???"

I answer, "Some time after hell freezes over." But then again I am divorced. ;)

Regards, Ivan

[scouse]

I would never marry before my mom does.

[francisandbeans]

just answer it this way:

So it must be true...misery does indeed love company.

[RayBob]

Oops, sorry...thought this was a Star Trek thread!

[Billthedrill]

I answer it with a question "how old is your daughter?" Seems to work every time...

[Azzurri]

I just laugh it off with, "Didn't you get the invitation"? It always ends the subject.

[gardenfence]

My response: are you writing a book?

[Sabertooth]

How would you answer the IRKSOME Q: "So when are you getting married??"

How about:

"I'm getting married when I know that I've found someone who's as serious about having an unbreakable committment to me, as I will have for them.

Love is a choice, not a weather pattern."

Or:

"I'm still taking bids."

[Bella_Bru]

I usually say, "When I damn well please. When are you going to get a life so you can stop being interested in mine?"

[Blowtorch]

Well come to Utah and you'd see that thrice in 2 days is about normal around here.

My answer is always "I'm ready as soon as I find the right girl." In your case, if you have found the one, then I must ask, when are you getting married?
