Elizabeth Gilbert on why single childfree women live longer, happier, healthier - and the opposite is true for men

Less likely to be murdered, take their own lives, be alcoholic ...

I was interested in how she talked about how women pour themselves into men.

Men are more likely to leave wives diagnosed with serious illnesses than woman are to leave husbands.

Widowed men who were happily married are more likely to marry again (my late godmother's widower married her best friend on GdM's actual birthday.)

This is serious.

I’ve been divorced for 5 years now ( aged 55) . I’m so happy being single . He was a narcissist. I see some of my friends feeling quite unhappy in their marriages. I’m just looking forward to years and years of being single and not having to compromise anymore. You can’t put a price on freedom.
