Do you find it offensive or a compliment when someone asks you why you're single?

Don't really care, usually I'm asked this by married people...and the first thing that pops in my head is "I don't want to turn into you?"...

I figure it's probably just curiosity. No problem.

Depends on the conversation. Usually annoyed, since it seems like guys' favorite conversation openener.

No, I have had people ask why I stayed in my bad marriage when that was alive.

I would try to take it as a compliment lol like oh gee I can't believe you are single...instead of why are you single can't you get anyone to want you?

i don't find it either one... let's face it ,if its a guy hes probably trying to get in your pants, if its a girl she's just being nice. you know why you are single..... becausethe other sex sucks!!! atleast that was the reason when i was single. hahah

Nobody asks me. Which makes me wonder why. Is it just so obvious when they look at me? Don't they care? Am I that uninteresting? I need some coffee........

Do you find it offensive or a compliment when someone asks you why you're single? Usually a compliment, when I ask someone this I'm looking for a specific answer.
