You must be really young or have no people older than 20 in your circle because the kind of misery of a single 40yo postmenopausal woman with no kids its abysmal. I'm talking existential dread here, the can't-go-back kind of realization because she is now officially old, that boat has sailed forever. I have a few colleagues like that and frankly I feel bad for them. The fact you're comparing that to a breakup in your 20s tells me how little you know about life.They always like to paint a picture of "miserable alone" like the 20 year old doesn't get cheated on or have a man fall out of love when she reaches 40 herself, or a person can't be happy being single
Not allergic I really don't care about single and as a man I can always do a 180° because I don't go infertile with age, but my point is that just like someone with a spouse kids has to accept the tradeoffs so should those who want to remain alone. It just happens that according to every study being alone its worse on average. I also know a few boomer childless couples and they are not doing well either, they got nothing to help them but other frail aging friends, which is not to say some people have sons and daughters who are complete pieces of shit but again, numbers.Why are so many folks so allergic to even considering it?
Again I don't care but this is starting to sound like single forever cope, dial it down.You want to cry propaganda about marriage being seen as bad why don't you try stop seeing singleness as bad?
Glad we can agree on something.Sadly true
