Being Alone: A Choice!
More and more people are living alone! Society, in the past, has characterized single people by choice as somewhat broken or dysfunctional. Any marriage is better than no marriage was a decision made to appear normal, respectable, and happy (or at least appear to be so).
I believe that the need to be married or in a relationship to be happy and fulfilled is no longer fostered to the same degree it once was, and has been severely tested and altered by the young generation of today.
