That's kind of the point. This isn't a dating site. Which is probably why there isn't a need to have various relationship status labels.
But to anyone who thinks this is a good, effective idea on how to stop people from hitting on you it's not. As has been posted here, and as i've heard 1000 other times, having 'married' doesn't stop them. Neither does putting it in your profile, or PM box. Some people are here seeking sexual chat, some are just plain stupid, while others assume people are willing to cheat. It doesn't change anything.

Good idea!
Meanwhile, as other have said, you could write your blog telling what people could expect -or find- from you, but the site is intended for chatting and virtual fellowship.
In my case I don´t mind saying I´m divorced as others had said they have problems with drugs or sex but, as model (or modelled) Chritians, we are supposed to be above the average or standard, and my experience here has proved me few people here like to read or write things like those you´ve mentioned (there are big exceptions).

Marital Status:
Single
Engaged
Married
Widowed
Separated
Divorced
'Marital Status' is status with regard to marriage.
'Single' means "never been married" --- there is no such thing as:
~ "Single - Widowed"
~ "Single - Separated"
~ "Single - Divorced"
A person who is widowed -- is widowed.
A person who is separated -- is separated.
A person who is divorced -- is divorced.
Once you are married, you are never again considered to be 'single'.
Marital Status: ( <<<<< "Before you respond --- remember that this is what I am talking about!" )
'Relationship Status' would be something else all together.
