    Experienced divorce lawyer here (Pennsylvania and New Jersey). Marriage is an outdated technology. Most of my inner circle friends are professional, unmarried (divorced or never married) guys over 50 who date and travel with beautiful women but do not cohabitate. All of my male divorced friends and former divorce clients will never get remarried. Once you have tasted the freedom and bliss of joyfully dong the things you love, whenever you want, with whomever you want, there is no turning back. Great video!

    Yes it's easy to see how outdated it really is with all the people getting divorces after 30+ years of being married. Women especially just don't love their spouses for life anymore or think there's something better out there (which usually there isn't!) By about age 32-33 I knew I wasn't the marrying kind. That was 34-35 years ago.

    I was once asked about my stress level and I told the Dr that I had no stress in my home life. She looked at me kind of shocked. I'm a bachelor and my time is mine to spend as I wish. It's definately not lonely, but it is real nice live my life without compromise and on my terms. Have a great day Jim!

    It's to each their own. I have a beautiful, loving wife and a 2 year old son. We share financial, parental, household duties etc. Seeing my son running to me coming from work is the best feeling in the world.I still have time to play golf, go fishing and I encourage my wife to do the same with her hobbies. It's about compromise. Some people are married and sad, some are happy, the same with single people, some are happy and some not. Internal hapiness is inherent, hereditary, so it can't really be attributed to being single or not. Anyways, as long as any person is contributing to the world in a good way, I could care less if they're single or not.

    Just turned 61 and I have never married. Straight white male, have had numerous girlfriends but never wanted to enter into a contract with any of them. I believe I wouldn't have been able to retire at 50 if I had taken on a wife. My days are filled with doing things I want to do. Pure freedom. I am a loner by nature and prefer solitude with the exception of having dogs. It is amazing how clearly you can think without interruptions and having to do things you don't want to do. I always get a kick out of talking to married guys when they ask why I'm not married. I always respond "Sure, it would be nice to have sex whenever you want it....." That always seems to spark some soul searching in them.

    I’m going to share this video with my youngest son. He is a 30 yr old Bachelor who has no problem finding a girlfriend. He claims he doesn’t want to get tied down, loves his freedom, and the responsibility of children scare him mainly because of the current times we live in.🫣 He also claims women are to complicated (confusing). As a woman, I’d have to agree, women are complicated and have difficulty keeping it simple. I’ve been married to the same man for over 30 years because he keeps it simple, and I really appreciate him for that. Thank you for sharing, make it a great day! 👏🏼💪🏼❤️

    FREEDOM both personal and financial is the biggest benefit. Settling down is usually toxic as is living with someone or vice versa. I wouldn't consider it these days. Most in my age group (mid 60s) are turning into old ladies before their time with their negative wavelength mostly complaining how rough it is being old. If it isn't that they're always talking about their saintly grandchildren which I have no interest in. Being unattached is the best choice no matter your age group.

    Yeah, I hate when society pressures people to get married, have kids, etc. I think everyone should be so free to choose the life they want to live. I'm almost 50 and hearing people asking me if I'm not scared of growing old alone is driving me crazy. No I'm not scared , I'm wild and free I do what I want, when I want.
