Plz explain to me When I met some people. they asked me: " Do you have a boyfriend?" So what should I say? Should I say whether " No, I don't have" or " Not yet" ? Thanks!

I personally think that you should answer "no, i dont have" when you have no one interested yet and is still finding the one or you should say "not yet" when you're going to have a boyfriend soon...

Should be "No", or, "No, I don't have one". "No, I don't have" sounds bad.

Both are correct but......When you say " No, I don't have" means you are single and you are not interrested for having a boyfriend and you feel comfortable with this. When you say " Not yet", it means that you are single but you are "searching" for a boyfriend or you are "waiting" for a boyfriend. You could answer " No, I don't have a boyfriend.... yet! "
