    I just say 'no', I mean, it's not lying, it's true, I'm not in a relationship with a girl/boy/enbyfriend. If I happened to be in a relationship then depending on the stage of relationship I'd say 'no, actually I have a(n) X, mind if X comes over this weekend?' or something to that affect.

    Hope this helps.

    You could say you are focused on school/sports/etc.

    "No, not really looking for anything right now", or "Nope, just focusing on school", or "if someone comes along then that'll be then" (although this one may hint something to your parents).
