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

Seems like there are a lot more incels than there used to be.

I'm not exactly sure what this means. Are these the guys that just sort of go on sexual strike or something? That doesn't make sense. The flings and short term relationships are not usually an issue for guys. I can see being frustrated with having shitty options for long term prospects given how selfish people are.

My wife and I both have friends that are approaching 40 and are single. At some point we are going to have to set them up on a blind date or something. But neither seem to be desperate enough quite yet.

Meanwhile the rest of us in that social circle are married with kids. Our lives are increasingly more and more about kids and things having to do with our kids. It's kind of weird to hang out with bachelors and for them to hang out with us.
