Just passed Double Eleven, I’m still buying it, do you still remember that November 11 was originally Singles’ Day?
According to the marriage big data released by the Civil Affairs Bureau this year, as of 2018, the number of single adults in my country has reached 240 million, 9.471 million couples registered for marriage in 2019, and 4.154 million couples registered for divorce. The marriage rate has been falling all the way, but the divorce rate has continued to rise.
More and more young people choose to be single are just a few reasons:
First of all, they are short of money.
This love requires money. Whether it is buying a house or renting a house, it is a mountain. Not to mention that when you get married and have children, the cost of living has risen sharply. There is a problem that cannot be solved without money, but the problem of young people is that they have no money.
The second is busy.
If you want to solve the first problem, you have to work hard to make money. However, after the work of 996 is over, there are still a few people who have time and energy to fall in love. No wonder some people say that he can’t do both making money or getting out of singleness, so he only completed hair loss.
The third is the increase in expectations for marriage.
Compared with the previous generation, many young people's views on marriage have undergone qualitative changes. For them, marriage is no longer about finding a partner to live. In the past, the low divorce rate and high marriage rate did not mean that the quality of marriage was high. Moreover, because the cost of being single and divorce was too high, no matter how boring and painful their marriage was, he could only stay in it. Nowadays, young people are no longer willing to easily enter marriage in order to follow the crowd.
The era of sacred marriage and demonized divorce has passed. The gradual equality of love and marriage is the signal of social progress. The increasing number of single people does not mean that young people do not want to get married, but rather that the quality of marriage is getting higher and higher. Everyone hopes that after having a certain economic foundation, we will find someone who is in love to work together to work together, and will not aggriev the other party for the sake of food, food, oil and salt, nor will we be too bored and wronged ourselves.
From this perspective, the increase in single population just proves that happy marriages may be becoming more and more.
