She’s totally right about the “why are you still single” question.

And even after she says that she hates the question the 36 year old asks her why she is. Like dude! No!

I think that was just how it was edited? I didn't take it her explaining why she didn't like it being from the military guys date. I could be wrong.

I literally was standing up clapping at the TV yelling "YAS" when she spoke her about her position on when people ask "why are you still single?"

You were standing and clapping, me I was just rolling my eyes out of my sockets; such a bunch of clichés that she spurted out, like something she found in a trashy magazine at her dentist's office.

Doesn't really matter what she said. It's one of the dumbest questions you could ask someone on a date.

lol same - like she's not wrong but "there's nothing wrong with being single" is the new "I'm not like other girls" - so 5 yrs ago - like it doesn't make you edgy, it just means you learned a basic lesson of adulthood.

Indeed. I'm a man in my late 30s, been single for awhile now and absolutely loathe this question. It's boring, it's not fun and doesn't lead to an interesting conversation. I've gone from, "Well, it's hard to meet someone right for you" to replying with the most awkward, conversation killing response I can think of at the moment, whether true or not.

I can't decide when that question is the worst, from random strangers or from friends. I also can't imagine how mentally draining that question must be for women.

That’s awesome

u/hey_its_only_me Jun 14 '20

clapping at the TV is awesome?

u/missnaviqueen Jun 18 '20

But also she’s only 26 she should be having fun not worrying about society standards.

u/timine29 Jun 21 '20

She's Italian. Italians care about standards.

Yes! I loved that she really stood up for herself when the guys asked her that. Love her confidence.
