My favourite is: "And what are YOU waiting for?" (To get married). Mind your own business, relative i see once or twice a year.

Since it'susually older relatives to say that, you can answer: "your inheritance"

There nothing wrong in telling people that you're happy ad you are and just talk about something else. Unless you're not then you actually have something to talk about!

I don't see the problem really or mayne I'm just naive?

From my experience, the problem isn't the question itself but how and why it's being asked. I've seen it used as a way of measuring one's success because they believe everyone should want and have a family to be successful in life and if you don't want or have that, you are treated differently and sometimes even as an outright failure to them.

Or just say you're already getting all the sex you can handle. Usually that will shut relatives up quick
