For me, the response "single by choice" was a polite way of saying "mind your own business" and/or "No, I really don't want to be set up with your unemployed nephew".
Exactly! A coworker of mine mentioned recently she may "have somebody for me." I'd imagine a friend of her chronically unemployed (not only through bad times) loser BF... Thanks, but no thanks.

I'm open to ideas and I'm single until I come across somebody worthwhile, but I'm not actively searching. If it happens, fine; if it doesn't, fine again.
If I am to search, trouble could be here tonight...
I hear MOSTLY women say this. I always think is there any other reason why someone would be single other than it being their own choice?
I think they say it because they think is sounds nice rolling off of their lips. It really does not make any sense.
What does it mean?
I think it's because a lot of the time if a woman says she is single, people are sympathetic and almost take pity on them.
It's kind of their way of saying "it's ok don't worry, I am single and it's my own choice, it's not because I am some loser who can't find a man - I actually WANT to be single".

Hope I'm not repeating anyone in saying this, because I haven't looked at all the responses. But I always thought it meant when a woman was expected to be in a relationship leading to marriage and motherhood, she instead chose to be single as a statement to the rest of the world that she didn't need a man to be happy.
