Singles are Sending Us Into Despair - Singles / Chat & Dating News

 
Flying solo can sometimes have a certain stigma attached especially for females. The singles stigma can become more intense as we age. There is sometimes expectations from family for their 30 + year old sons or daughters to wed and have children and live happily ever after.
 

An alarming 1 in 3 marriages will end in divorce, not to mention the spill over of a failed marriage which can sometimes takes years to undo, its little wonder we are increasingly choosing the singles life nowadays. Pressures such as the high cost of living and other related financial burdens are attributed to many divorces. This is resulting in less reproduction which sees an increasing ageing population emerging.
 
 
As baby boomers age some end up divorced, widowed or have chosen to stay in the singles lifestyle. The singles lifestyle often reflects a 'live for the moment' logic which is fantastic and should be experienced by us all at some point in our lives, although there is an increasing amount of singles remaining single and are not planning for tomorrow.
 

This pattern sees ageing singles experiencing and prolonging the 'lifestyle' and running out of funds and employment options when they reach their 30s and 40s. This particular group of singles are at more risk of depression or self harm than any other group as research suggests that was carried out at Lexus University. This self destructing lifestyle is becoming the 'norm' more than ever among ageing singles which could result in our future and security as a whole come under question. This carefree lifestyle could in fact create less of everything we currently take for granted with ageing singles not playing a part or contributing to society for our future everyday needs where in fact they become the problem. This may well result in less offspring, less fathers, less Mothers, fewer Doctors, less police, fewer volunteers, less school teachers, fewer military, and the list goes on. This could eventually snow ball     and result in  short falls in our every day products and services we assume as a given.
 

So in theory what could result is a larger drain on social services with a declining number of qualified or skilled workers to carry an even bigger load resulting in lopsided societies in terms of qualified workers vs unqualified unqualified workers. If western society doesn't change its attitude within the next 10 - 15 years, this most certainly will be the emerging outcome.    
 

So is there a fix for this inevitable out of control destiny that is waiting for us? Do we as singles enjoy too much freedom with no means of applying the brake? Does this raise concerns about our 100% unrestricted access to virtually everything on offer? Is democracy killing us slowly?
 

Unrestricted freedom seems to have created a monster among singles that constantly needs to be fead. This beast only grows bigger and hungrier as many of this group are constantly looking for a better social buzz.

The number of ageing singles using free Online dating and chat room services are increasing compared to 5 years ago.Free Online dating and chat services that have offered statistics for this research claim that in 2003 their data base for singles aged between 35 - 45 was at 23%. The same free online dating and chat services have offered statistics for this same age group in 2008 and now show that 35% of their data base consists of this age group. Up 12% in 5 years. This is proof that there are more and more singles simply remaining single for longer than ever before. 
 

Singles travel is a trend that has seen this demographic alter. In 1993 two in ten travelers went abroad as singles. Amazingly, Fourteen years on saw 2007  statistics rise to  six in ten travelers going it alone. Is being partnered up really that bad? It appears many singles are taking life by the horns and riding off into the sunset and are reluctant to return to contribute to the core fundamentals desperately needed for our sustainability. With all the technology and power the world has created we have no immediate means to stop it.
