It does sound like harassment. I think a lot of people are saying how great it would be to come up with some clever and rude comeback, and thats the kind of thing thats fun to do in your head after the fact, but I would actually reccomend not doing it since he's your boss and it could just set up a challenge.

Heh, I love all these comebacks people are coming up with. Nice.

You should have replied with: "No, but I do have 5 kids with 3 different moms"

It's also possible that there may be a girl there who's flirting with you and you're completely unaware of it.

That would explain everything.

They don't probably think you're gay unless you act feminine. They see you to yourself and shy, and not really socialize like other people at work. So they wonder do you get any p****. So they ask you do you have a girlfriend. Or they just nosey.

Its your duty to inform the nosy ones you're a back door man. Unhappy wives don't have to fuss much when they set their designs on you, you are naturally inclined to be helpful.

Don't file harassment.
That makes you a tattle-tale.
And nobody likes a tattle-tale.
Seriously, if you turn them in, you're just as big of an A-hole as them.
People who tattle can't handle their own problems.
The only time that tattling is OK is when you want revenge.
So...
Two choices:
1) Tattle, lose balls, grow female reproductive organs...
2) Don't tattle, keep balls, don't grow female reproductive organs...

When people see that you are different, maybe you are quiet and shy,
they want to sort of fix up your life.
They think that they have the right to be nosy and to tell you what to do.

I don't have children and I'm married so people tell me to have children. It's annoying.
Sometimes I want to tell them the truth.. I hate children. But I can't do that.

The best you can do is to tell them how happy you are by being single. Don't tell them that married people are unhappy and get divorce. Don't return the insult. Tell them that you respect people regardless of their marital status.

I can kind of relate to this. The happiest period in my life, when I really completly enjoyed my life, people flocked around me, telling me how bad my life was, all the things I was missing out, feeling sorry for me, wanting to help.

I don't know if they were just trying to be kind. Or just jealous/scared of me living a different lifestyle.

However, I'm a curious person For a period in my life I have been experimenting with different lifestyles and identities. I made me nothing but very unhappy and depressed. But now that I don't like my life, all those "kind" people don't feel sorry for me now, or want to help...

So I think that not always, but often, people "wanting to help other" to become "happy" haven't really chosen their own lifestyle, but just seen it as the only option. Then they become insecure when someone finds happiness another way. What does that mean, maybe they could have lived the life they wanted, doing the things they dreamed of? Scary thought... makes people want to change other, happy, people to become more like themselves.


Anyway, whatever causes their action:
it's really annoying...

and to that specific question, if it is repeated too often, I would just answer that I'm gay and don't want to settle down yet because I enjoy f*****g around too much. But that I have donated a lot of eggs/sperm to make sure I serve god and the purpose of life.
