Guys what if I told you that unmarried men and bachelor's have shorter lifespan?

I know some people at misc have a "single forevah" attitude but can you guys tell me some personal stories about your uncle's or friends who remained single or has on and off relationships . Asking because my girlfriend just broke up with me(25) and I am going to foreign country for studies .

Do relationships really increase your lifespan?

I wonder how many factors they account for, or if they just looked at overall averages. I mean chances are bachelors and lonely brahs are more susceptible to suicide, depression, alcoholism, etc. If you avoid all that **** and stay single chances are your life expectancy should be the same as married bros.

Not surprised at the findings at all, especially regarding single men.

Only if you count divorced men as unmarried.

Guess who has by far the highest rope rate?

Lifelong bachelors actually come out quite a bit ahead of married men once you put the divorcecels where they belong. In the married group.

Bachelor generally = WAY less stress though, so this seems kind of dubious imo.

You can probably say that though for men in an unhappy marriage as well

Its because they are actually living life instead of just existing.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

You know.. I'm not naive enough to expect women to wait around forever. I would expect discretion but I can't necessarily blame them for wanting to live their life

That being said... do you want to relationship a girl who's been in 10 relationships?

I don't get how people do. Actually, I do..but I would think it's more boredom/ not wanting to be lonely.. cause I just don't see whats worth it in that

I know both people can have pasts but to me being in a relationship is exclusive, bonding, etc., etc. It just doesn't feel that way at a certain point

It's literally going through the motions at that point

I can relate with what you said , you must really value friends and family to think that way . For most marriage is just a contract but for people like it's more than that
