Is It Possible To Be Single and Healthy?
I am robustly healthy. Maybe it’s genetics. Maybe it’s ballet class. Maybe it’s never having to pick up someone else’s towel from the bathroom floor. A few days ago, I read about yet another study that implies marriage is the key to better health, and I started to wonder if an unforeseen illness was lurking around the corner. It’s enough to make you sick.
Please read Bella DePaulo’s insightful post in Psychology Today, debunking these kinds of studies. It will be good for your health.
