Description

Annie Lane writes the Dear Annie advice column.

Dear Readers: Many of you wrote to me in response to “Independent and Irritated.” This 65-year-old single woman was struggling with how to reply to people who questioned why she never married despite her older age. So many readers wrote in to share their own similar experiences and suggest some wonderful replies to an invasive and awkward question. Here are some of my favorites I wanted to share with you.
