Meaning of expression “I have no answer”

Unable to find the expression “ I have no

answer”.

I use it when someone asks for a question that is uncomfortable.

Example; “Dave are dating Betty? My reply

“I have no answer” to that question.

I think it is a polite way to say “mind your

own business”

Then again it is more fun not telling someone. Keep them guessing.
