Hello in past few month i had a chance to meet many new people, i have attended few courses, had 2 diffrent jobs. All of those places had a few female workers/participants, and i have often heard this question from them: ' Hi, do you have girlfriend?' Most of those girls were taken/married of some sort so i m confused how should i apporach this situation when someone asks me this sort of question.

 

/And yes i m single, idk if i give off such strong singles vibe >_>/

I can think of four common motivations why a non single woman would ask you if your single...

 

1) they want to know if they need to avoid leading you on

2) Their a matchmaker

3) their not overly happy with current SO

4) simple curiosity

It's a common Q designed to determine if they are poaching on someone else's territory. It's not a vibe you are giving off so much as a sign of interest whether they want to date you or fix you up with one of their friends.

They just ask to be chatty and friendly.

What do you mean by that? Of course you should pay attention to this question. It's a giant neon sign that the person asking it is more interested in you than someone who is not asking it.
