People are always asking me about my love life, like people at school. I have had a boyfriend before but that only lasted a week, and I always feel uncomfortable saying 'oh I've only had one boyfriend' when people ask. I know it's not a race or a competition as to who can get the most boyfriends, but it's starting to bug me and I don't want to lie and say I've had loads of boyfriends. The thing is, I'm just not emotionally ready to be in a relationship, and I want any relationship I have to be a long one, so I'm obviously gonna have less boyfriends than everyone else. I don't mind that, I just mind being embarrased when I say 'one'. How can I avoid these conversations, or what should I say when they come up? (link)

Hi Sweetie,
First of all, you don't have to justify yourself. If you don't feel comftrable ansswering that question, its okay. It doesn't matter why. Maybe you don't like telling people personal things or it could even be that competition stuff (I know its not becuase you said it wasn't, but I am just giving examples). Either way, it comes down to the same issue: YOU ARE NOT COMFTRABLE ANSWERING THAT QUESTION.
Its cool. Im not either. All I tell people is, "That's a little personal, don't you think?" and it works for me. It should work for you too. If they keep asking tell them to respect your privacy. It may seem weird t first if you are not used to keeping things frome people but you will get used to it and they will get used to it and people will be more considerate when they ask you that type of question.
Take care! ~Blessed Be...
