意思
Asking about someone's relationship status.
文化背景
Asking about relationship status is a sign of 'quan tâm' (caring). It is not seen as rude as it might be in the West. The word 'bồ' is much more frequent here than in the North, where 'người yêu' remains the standard. Young people use the term 'ế' (unsellable) to joke about being single. They might ask 'Thoát ế chưa?' instead. Parents often use this question to transition into 'giới thiệu' (introducing) you to a friend's child.
Don't be offended
If a Vietnamese person asks you this within 5 minutes of meeting, they aren't being nosy; they are trying to find a topic to connect with you.
The 'Kinship' Rule
Always check the age of the person. If they are older, use 'Anh/Chị'. If younger, 'Em'. Using 'Bạn' is safe but can feel like a textbook.

Avoid 'Không'
Never end this question with 'không?' unless you want to sound like a robot. 'Chưa?' is the only natural way.
