When you’re single too long, you’re bound to eventually be asked why you’re single. Your parents, your friends and even complete strangers might want to know. While this question can be annoying to some, others choose to answer in a straightforward or humorous way.
For some people, the answer is simple. They just haven’t met someone they want to be in a relationship with. For other people, they may realize they have a quirk or two that turns others off.
In a new hashtag challenge, Jimmy Fallon asked his followers to “Tweet out a funny, weird, or embarrassing reason you’re single.”
It’s Hashtags time! Tweet out a funny, weird, or embarrassing reason you’re single and tag it with #WhyImSingle. Could be on the show!

One time I was singing along to Hamilton in the car and noticed drops on my windshield. I used my windshield wipers because I thought it might be raining. Turns out it was just my spit. #WhyImSingle

#WhyImSingle My last serious boyfriend told me I will never love him or anyone as much as I love my dogs. He was right and he is gone ✌️ He also told me I cant “foster anymore dogs” The next day I went and picked up a 100LB German Shepherd to foster. True Story.

I have a lot of Captain America themed items (from phonecases, to power banks, to earphones, keychains, household items, you name it). Apparently it’s immature and unreal to crush on a fictional character 😂 #WhyImSingle

I foster and rescue the loves of my life. My ex told me if I brought one more dog home, he was gone. I brought two for insurance purposes. That’s #WhyImSingle pic.twitter.com/ks0HUl6nAu

I was on a first date and had a couple glasses of wine to calm down, it was clearly one too many because as we were leaving I decided to take the entire box of toys they had for kids and start handing them out to random people outside the restaurant #whyimsingle

#WhyImSingle. Because, even though i am only 110lbs and 5’ tall.. I seem to be too much to handle. My friends tell me I am intimidating. Figure that one out. I can’t

When I meet new people I can’t help but point finger guns at them and say, “How YOU doin?” Joey Tribbiani style. I’m a 56 year old woman. #WhyImSingle
