Why young people are increasingly choosing loneliness
Every year, people are less and less willing to legalize their relationship stamped in the passport. A recent report in Washington published a study on the reasons why people remain lonely. The report states that people born between 1984 and 2003 may not find a mate until they are 40 or 50. The researchers provided three main reasons for which the editorial board "Site" I decided to think and find out what the meaning of loneliness of modern people is.
Especially creative people simply need loneliness. People come up with their best ideas themselves. Reasonable thoughts and out-of-the-box solutions can catch up with us while walking in the park or over a cup of morning coffee, and much less often during collective brainstorming.
There is no suitable pair of 30% of respondents cited this as the main reason for their lonely life. Thanks to the Internet, there are an infinite number of people you can meet without leaving home. Young people can communicate for years on social networks without ever seeing each other in real life.
This is due to the fact that people are not so much looking for a partner to create a family, as they increase their self-esteem by communicating. You don’t need any dates if Instagram says you’re a beautiful, slim and interesting woman, according to your post on the page.
This is another 27% of respondents. Generation Y doesn't believe in fairy tales of princes and unexpected luxury. People are used to relying only on themselves. This is reasonable, because it would be unfair to shift all household obligations and financial issues to the head of the family.
Young people don’t see the point of building relationships in which their children may be missing something. It is better to earn money, get on your own feet, and then think about family. This is what our young parents taught us. Many people are affected by the divorce of relatives. Because of such situations, children do not want to get married, knowing what a happy family life can turn out in a few years.
22% of Generation Y just don’t want to live with one person forever. The same social media shows us that there is no need to settle down with one person if there are millions and billions of other interesting personalities in the world. Human nature is such that if we have a choice, we will always compare ourselves to each other and look for the best candidate for living together.
Besides, being single is no longer a shame. Many single people pride themselves on being alone with their thoughts. In the XXI century, personal space is highly valued. An overabundance of information only aggravates the desire to spend an hour or two in solitude. Our body, our thoughts need a basic rest. Today, people see more pros in loneliness than cons. After all, you can marry in old age, why not live for yourself?
