I don’t see the problem. If I could go it again I probably wouldn’t. But to be fair, if you make real good money and can get constant nookie all the time why get married.?????

I’d like to see the socio-economic breakdown. I’m guessing most are lower class with kids. They aren’t living the dream single life. Their situation is far from ideal, and a result of a life full of bad decisions.

Sure there are male professionals that never found the right person to tempt them enough to give up their independence, or career driven women that might have unrealistic expectations, but most people in their 40’s that never married have problematic issues going on in their lives.

Depending on where you are, you hit “the wall” in the singles scene to where your choices are divorcees and single mothers for the most part.

It’s a real thing in the BR area simply because there aren’t a lot of white collar professionals here in their 20s and 30s, so if you haven’t grabbed one by the time you are about out of college you will be finding one who spent a lot of time riding the cock carousel.


This is less an issue in a lot of huge metro areas like Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, etc, where there are a lot of young professionals out there.

rt but that number is increasing. so that means more and more people have problematic issues. So again its showing society in a negative viewpoint. and getting worse.
