There are no "third parties," such as a partner's ex-wives, children or other family members to deal with when one is single. In fact, singletons can choose their "extended family" from their circle of friends. Studies show that single people these days have plenty of friends, social outlets and extracurricular activities, so gone is the stereotype of the lonely spinster sitting at home with a dozen cats. There are a lot of fringe benefits to being alone - those little indulgences like choosing the DVD you want to watch, getting the takeout you prefer and not having to worry about what you look or smell like when you wake up. The truth is, being happy in your singlehood will make it a happy time. Being unmarried is just as valuable a choice as being married, and being comfortable with your status is key to breaking the stereotype that being single means being unhappy.
