For all the singles out there who is experiencing the same thing.. Here's my older brother's experience that he had shared to me: Old aunts used to come up to my brother at weddings, poking him in the ribs and cackling, telling him, "You're next.."
They stopped after he started doing the same thing to them at funerals hahahahaha...
Any more tips out there? Please contribute. =)

how to stop them when the ones who are bugging you are you parents and the whole family?...that's really very frustrating...they are too insensitive they couldn't understand why i decided to remain single...i told them that married life is very risky and full of hassles and problems, troubles and the likes...but they just laugh at me...well, i told them i will marry when im 30 years old and that made them realize how serious i am in avoiding the issue...i just couldn't understand why they wanted me to get married this early...i mean hello...there's still lots of stuff that's coming my way and im still determine to enjoy life as a single...being single is sooo great i doubt it if i can even leave this status...hahahahahahha...though I got a bf right now both of us really have no plans in settling down...we're still enjoying our times as lovers and we still enjoy the company of our friends and comrades without diapers and infant milks to worry about...hhehehehehe...

I was in a same situation a few years ago. The usual pressure from my parents and relatives:-( And my typical reaction was too sharp. I showed frankly that this is none of their bussiness without so much hypocrisy. "Just leave me allone".
hahaham your brother rulezzzzzzz :))))))
