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

I have been married 26 years and honestly it has been the best thing to happen to me.

I have a 16 year old son who is smart, athletic and good looking and so far he has had no trouble with the ladies.

But I did tell him about the “Men who go their own way” movement, and gave him the example of two of my co-workers who are about to retire in their mid-fifties with a few million in the bank and a paid off house.

I also provided my example and his two uncles who will all be married for life and honestly being married and raising a family has been by far the best thing in life for me and if I could go back to age 20 and live my life over again I would without changing it.

My point is men need to realize staying single is a choice. It may be the best choice for some and not others but all men need to understand the choice is out there.
