More women are choosing to be single
If you’re not married, you’re definitely not alone. The latest United States Census revealed that for the first time in the history of ever, unmarried women outnumber their married counterparts. If you haven’t noticed it before, perhaps now you will, just as I did at a recent dinner party in New York City. Although I was invited by a female friend, I assumed that most everyone else would be there as couples. As it turned out, the vast majority of attendees were women who’d either come solo or with a friend, as I had. I quickly sussed out that most of these women were unmarried, and all of them, by choice. More women than ever are making this choice, according to research, and not as a rejection of marriage, but as a result of embracing the many choices available to women today—only one of which is marriage. That was definitely the vibe I picked up at the dinner party, and as I began talking to more women about why they like being single and what they see as the benefits of being single, it became even clearer. It is not a desire to be alone but, rather, to be fully engaged in their lives. They’re open to the possibility of a committed partnership, and some are already in relationships. None, however, is waiting for another person to make her whole.
