repeat after me folks: marriage and kids doesnt equal happiness and we shouldnt feel obligated to go down that path
If you don’t get married and have kids, your married friends will drift away, because they are so busy and have such different lives. By middle age, you will end up having to kill decades trapped in an underworld with other lonely broken people that no one wanted. I’ve seen it.

Happiness come from within. Chasing external validation in any form is a fool’s errand.

Being single, and being 50, after decades of being involved, I can say that I'm enjoying this much better. I need space so I can think and meditate. I never feel alone, even if I technically am

Being alone and being lonely are two different things. Men need a degree of solitude.

Doesnt really make it any less true

It also doesn't mean it's a long gone conclusion. He like Ann Coulter's singleness enough to give her a pass.

Again this isn’t a situation where you take the mean and apply it to all individuals. There will be people that are happy being single, but generally speaking there will be a distribution, a mean, and standard deviation which will give you more information.

In addition to being fed a saccharin diet of progressive bullshit in college, young adults are also told not to have kids thereby extending their adolescence by many years and delaying the invetible change in personal philosophy

Relying on marriage for purpose can trap u in a busy groupthink of opinions, a trajectory of mediocrity. People u invest in can disappoint u, & u will know to keep disappointments to yourself. Sometimes the loneliest, most broken people were the most connected. I've seen it,too

I tried marriage. I will never make that mistake again. I don't regret it entirely since it gave us our amazing son. But I'm content staying single.

I see it with 2 of my uncles. I am just screwed, way to damaged for someone to try and date. Because sadly that would require work and most people between 21 and 32 don't want to put effort into anything. Especially relationships, my generation barely has a 3 month average

Not everyone is able to marry no matter how much they might desire to. It’s not quite as simple as you are trying to make it. Please don’t lump all single people together

As someone who has lifelong conditions,that has & will require tremendous amounts of time & effort to contend with.I fully know,accept & understand why I will never be able to be a husband or especially a father.. So I thank you for standing up for those who cannot!
