Why are single, young, male professionals disrespected?

  • As I am nearing 30 years old I am starting to notice that others around my age are beginning to shun me. Let me explain: I have never been in a relationship and I live at home rent free. At work, when people are having discussions, a few times they jokingly (or maybe not) said they were having an adult discussion that I would not be interested in. The funny thing is that these people were all the same age if not slightly older than me. Also, I am more established and accomplished than all of them, of course I never say that! My finances are in order, I am soon to have an advanced degree and I don't have the concerns associated with having a girlfriend or a wife and/or kids. I am beginning to suspect that maybe they are jealous of me for these reasons. I discussed this with my parents and some friends and they tend to agree with me. What do you think? Also, do you find that single people are shunned for other reasons? If so, what are they?

  • Answer:

    You ask this question every day. Living at home at 30, obviously, you are an anomaly in society. Most 30 year olds in this society do not live at home. Therefore, you are different. it's not necessarily a bad thing..it's just people assume that you are not responsible because you still live at home with mommy and daddy. Women like men that have their own place and are independent of their parents.

No offense, sir, but I highly doubt that anyone is "jealous" of the fact that you're 30 and have never had a girlfriend.
