re: A record-high share of 40-year-olds in the U.S. have never been married

I'd venture to say most of my original social circle are unmarried 40 year olds. As my kids have gotten older and we've moved into more kid-centric neighborhoods, I've gotten more and more friends similar to me in family structure so this has changed, naturally. I have absolutely nothing against my old school friends (who I'm also still very close with) ever getting married if that's their thing. However, I could never make it in that realm... especially with kids. There's just no way.
As more and more people join your friends group instead of your nuclear family community it will get worse.
More single men and women=more opportunities for married women and men to jump ship and break up families. Then include the group effects among divorced women...who tend to get divorced in groups.
People won't care and will continue with the "doesn't effect me, so why should I care?" Mentality.
