Look, I’m not going to sugar coat it. The holidays are a crappy time to be single. The only thing that might make you feel better is realizing that they’re kind of a crappy time to be in a relationship too. For all of the joy and festivities there are this time of year, there’s a lot of anxiety and expectation and binge eating sugar cookies that don’t even taste that good. But, being single during the holidays does seem to make you a target for a lot of annoying chatter. So, I’ve decided to create a list of all of the things no single girl wants to hear over the holidays.

  1. Why do you think you’re single?

  2. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s still married. Is that ok?

  3. Maybe you should stop being so picky.

  4. I have someone to set you up with, but he lives across the country. Is that ok?

  5. You came here alone?

  6. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s short. Is that ok?

  7. I don’t know why you’re single!

  8. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s bald. Is that ok?

  9. When are you going to get married?

  10. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s way too young for you. Is that ok?

  11. You know your uterus isn’t getting any younger.

  12. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s way too old for you. Is that ok?

  13. I wish you’d stop focusing on your career and focus on catching a man.

  14. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s asexual. Is that ok?

  15. You expect to find love wearing shoes like that?

  16. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s not attractive. Is that ok?

  17. You need to move out of that town if you want to meet a man.

  18. I have someone to set you up with, but he’s a war criminal. Is that ok?

  19. Have you ever tried online dating?

  20. I have someone to set you up with, but he texts using only emoticons. Is that ok?

  21. I hope I live long enough to see you get married.

 

So, if you’re hanging with one of your single friends this season, just avoid any of the above, ok?
