How unmarried men are perceived and treated in society?

Okay, I'll be straight up—I don’t want to get married. I’m not attracted to anyone, neither men nor women, and I don’t feel any attachment in relationships. Honestly, I find them burdensome and anxiety-inducing. I’ve managed to avoid most of the drama and pressure from relatives and friends, but now that I’m at the “prime age” for marriage according to the people around me , the pressure’s ramping up—even my parents are getting on my case. Not that it bothers me much; I’ve got thick skin and can handle them. One thing I’ve noticed, though, is how differently I’m treated compared to my married cousins at family gatherings (which I usually avoid anyway). There’s a lot of gossip and backbiting, and I’m pretty sure there are weird theories floating around about me. I’ve ignored it so far, but now it’s creeping into my friend circle. Most of my friends are married or have kids, and I’m feeling more and more distant from them. I’ve even noticed I’m not getting invited to as many events or trips. I don’t really mind, but it’s strange seeing my closest friends’ behavior change like this. It makes me question my choices sometimes. I’m not looking for advice, and I definitely don’t want to jump into a relationship just to fit in—I know I wouldn’t enjoy it and could end up hurting both myself and someone else. I just want to understand how society views unmarried men and what challenges they might face, so I can be prepared for whatever comes my way.
