Single Women Stay Sane
Monday December 22, 2003
According to an article from The Australian, "THE key to happiness - and sanity - for women could be to spend the whole of their lives single, British research suggested today. A survey of almost 4,500 men and women found that women who stayed single enjoyed much better mental health than those who had married or suffered a relationship split."

I really think there is something to this. I’ve also read that there are higher rates of depression in married women than single women. Since I have been on both sides, I would have to agree. In my marriages, I hated obligation sex and I missed my alone time!! Now, I am a single parent with three children and am so happy. I recently bought a house and am happy in my career. When asked if I want to start another relationship, I tell people that I am “adamantly” single. Whenever I am asked out, I just politely say no. I look at it like this: I am completely happy now with my family and friends…why would I want to ever jepordize that? Thanks for posting this!
