		<description>Wilmaryad, you hit the nail on the head with your thought-provoking comment too! Such inquires are annoying enough. I think for relationships can handled well without the interference of other people, unless we asked them for an advice or opinion, But ironically the problem is that you find volunteering opinions that don&#039;t usaly have nothing but to fulfill their curiosity.</description>

		<description>Thought-provoking post!

I believe in nothing else but respect of the other&#039;s privacy. I never ask personal questions, and would rather wait until the person trusts me enough to confide in me.

I hate it when people poke their noses in my private life.  The thing is I have no significant other at the moment (and haven&#039;t had one in years), so I don&#039;t know what to say when asked.

Mothers are the number one source of such inquiry: &quot;I&#039;m getting old, you need to get married so that your wife helps with the household chores!&quot;.  Mom, do you need a daughter-in-law or a house keeper?  I can get you the latter far more easily.

Society also likes to violate your secret garden. With co-workers hinting they&#039;d like to marry you, and neighbors telling you they have found the right girl for you, you feel like giving them a big piece of your mind.

The day I feel I am ready and willing to create a family, I won&#039;t seek anybody&#039;s approval or permission. Until then, my answer to all inquisitive minds is:  &quot;Not interested.&quot;</description>

		<description>That&#039;s an excellent point, Elizabeth. I agree with you and thinking about how strange that sometimes people spoil other relationships -with family for example- because of focusing only about their own marriage!</description>

		<description>I think focusing so narrowly on marriage leaves out a lot of human relationships, and that narrow view causes problems.  Relationships between parents and children, siblings, friends, housemates, etc. are also important but often overlooked.  People try to make a marriage do everything, and then it breaks and they wonder why.  We need a wider range of intimate, long-term relationships.
