Wow...those were all very good suggestions for comebacks to those that think that just 'cause you're dating someone, you should eventually marry them or your life won't be complete. I think my favorite was, why aren't you thin, although I would feel really really guilty if I ever actually said something like that to someone. It might be worth it to see the look on their face...Anyway, thanks for giving me a good laugh.
