The rise of the happy singleton

This is nearly double the number of singleton females recorded two decades ago and sociologists have put it down to the rise of the 'freemale' – women who are happy without a man in their lives.
Some two thirds of the women said they are fine – even happy – with the fact that they are not dating anyone and are carefree.
Experts expect the number of singletons living alone to rise to account for around 70 per cent of households by 2026.
Paula Hal, of relationship experts Relate, told the Daily Mail: "There's a cynicism about the benefits of long-term relationships because people have seen lots of them break down.
"If you're busy and fulfilled with lots of close friends, then relationships may seem a bit irrelevant, emotionally high-risk and a lot of hard work. There is also less of an economic need for women to be in relationships than there used to be.
"There is also less of a stigma about not having children. Now, these women call themselves childfree rather than childless.
"Basically, women feel comfortable doing whatever they want to do with their lives."
But everyone woman's different and many are longing to find their perfect man. If you're one of them, try dating online  |
