Single people often face this question- “Why are you still Single?” I know a guy / girl who would be a great match for you. Well people can ask you many questions, but sometimes when you listen same question again and again and again—- that affects mental health and push for rush decision.
Marriage and relationship is a crucial part of our life. When it comes to leading research on this, The Journal of Marriage and Family (JMF), published by the National Council on Family Relations, is one of a kind, this study anticipates the diversified decision-making progress.
Though it is a very personal choice, still people ask various questions on how and why are they single. These typical questions sometimes force people to take rush decisions and often people find out it was a mistake.
Below are some of the many reasons people could be single
- Wish to be Single: Some people just want to be single. They are not against getting married or being in a relationship, but they feel much happier with themselves.
- Used to Single Life: Single life has its freedom, enjoyment. It’s not easy to avoid that and start a life with responsibility. This freedom makes them encouraged to be single.
- Emotional Defense: Many of us have bitter experience in terms of relationship and to protect ourselves and creates an emotional defense.
- Too Picky: Being picky is not bad, but being too choosy is not very good as well. For some, they make a very big list. What we have to remember is the personality of a person should get the maximum priority.
- Low Self Confident: This is quite a sad part, as many have no confidence to talk to people. They fail to get courage and express their feelings.
These data were collected from single friends of mine and the several pieces of research available online. Iley Ozerlat explained in “The Benefit of Being Single”– that you can have various advantages; which we will discuss in our other blogs.
In our mind we have a deadline setup, by certain age have to get married, have to get children. This deadline could vary from country to country, but it is there. While many of us know that this deadline is established by our society, but still many breaks due to enormous pressure from society and try to make it quick.
We all have to remember – Divorce is a much worse experience. Yes, if you find your partner and you think he or she is the one- then no need to delay. But just because you HAVE to get married don’t jump into it.
