Why does everyone you meet automatically presume you're married (or just in a couple) because you're mature age?

I get annoyed because it's presumed you're part of a couple whenever you meet new people just because of how old they think you are and whether you have kids (or not) and similar odd (to me) ways of assessing someone's relationship status without directly asking.

In some advanced for the time literature during XIX century, "astronauts" went to the moon using victorian costumes.
Social related ideas may remain while everything else changes faster.

I´ve got personal anecdotes related to my once status as "single father" that point to almost the same.

@jefferson Ha ha you're funny. 8-) I have to overcome my chronic fears around sexual attraction, dating, relationships, etc. and work within my neuro-divergency plus being demi- and sapio-sexual to have any chance of finding that unicorn woman who isn't out there in reality after 8 yrs of being single b4 I could even try to have a relationship again.
