12 Genius Ways to Happily Fly Solo As a Single Person. I'm 29 years-old, and while by many accounts I have what is considered to be an incredible life, the bane of my existence is that I don't know how to be single. When my father asks me how I'm doing, I tell him about the great job I have, my amazing apartment, my sparkling social life, my exciting travels, and he listens attentively before finally responding, OK, but why can't you find yourself a man?" I try to explain that times have changed since the days of the Soviet Union, and that being single nowadays isn't a sign that you're a social pariah.

I have a wonderful life on my own, so it's not worth it for me to marry Vanya the Village Idiot just to keep up appearances. But when I'm in bars with my friends, most of whom are also single, we secretly wonder if there is something wrong with us. And all of the advice that you get from smug married couples doesn't help either. Half of them tell you that you need to "get out more" and "try harder" and the other half tell you that you need to "stop trying" because "you always meet someone when you're not looking," leaving you even more confused and frustrated than you were to begin with. And all of the articles on the Internet telling you that being single is oh-so-awesome feel like a pack of lies. So what follows are some rules that I have constructed, many of which are based on extensive research, that have helped me genuinely embrace singledom instead of viewing it as a personality dysfunction. So read on, and feel your solo spirits rise. And for more amazing advice on the subject, be sure you know the 20 Signs You're Afraid of Being Alone. Yes, you're alone, but you're not alone in being alone. In fact, you're part of a well-documented trend. The average age of marriage is now 27.1 for women and 29.2 for men, up from 20.3 and 22.8 in 1950. And the approach to marriage among Millennials is very different than Baby Boomers. In previous generations, marriage was the first step into adulthood. Today, many people consider it the last, which is why sociologists refer to today's bonds as "capstone marriages"–the last brick that you put into a successful life, the one you place once all of your other affairs are in order. And even those who are in relationships are waiting way longer than Baby Boomers to get hitched. For more on this, check out This Is How Long Today's Average Couple Dates Before Getting Married. Marriage rates in the U.S. have hit a historic low, a fact that worries a lot of social psychologists, given that marriage has been proven to have a variety of economic and health benefits. A 2014 study by the Pew Research Center predicted that at least 25% of Millennials will remain single forever. So when your grandmother grills you about being single, you can tell her that times have changed, and that studies indicate that by the time today's adults hit their 50s, one in every four will have never been married. Which means that, at the very least, there won't be such a social stigma around it anymore. Next, you might want to try to convince grandma that being single isn't as terrible as it sounds. One of the major reasons that so many Millennials are delaying serious relationships is because the presence of women in the labor force has increased dramatically over the last few decades. Back in 1950, only 33.9 percent of women worked outside the home, now, that figure is up to 57 percent, and is expected to keep rising. Movements to close the gender pay gap, which has been getting more narrow in the last few decades, are going strong. Back in the day, a lot of women had to get married, regardless of whether or not they wanted to, just to able to afford a nice life. Now, women have a lot more options, and financial independence is something everyone can get on board with. Student loan refinancing company Comet recently asked 364 single Millennials why they weren't in relationships, and 40 percent responded that it was because they were focusing on their careers. That might be a difficult concept for many older generations to grasp, but there's an unequivocal benefit to being able to focus on your work without the inevitable interruptions and obligations of having to feed a baby at 4 in the morning and trying to convince your spouse that selling the house and moving to Hong Kong for a year is a great idea. A lot of Millennials view being single not as a sign that you're a loser but as a unique opportunity to do your own thing before wholly committing yourself to someone else. "You can go and have any experience you want, whenever you want, and not have to worry about what someone else wants," psychologist Dr. Nikki Martinez told Bustle about the benefits of being single. "This is the time to travel on your own, to take a class just for fun, to do as many activities that you want, as you will not always have the chance to just pick up and do what you feel like." For many, this attitude is evidence that Millennials are selfish, overly individualistic, and entitled. But when Aziz Ansari polled seniors who had gotten married very young in his bestselling book, Modern Romance , many of the them—especially the women—said they wish they had been able to take more risks and figure out who they really are before settling down. So perhaps this attitude isn't selfish so much as an attempt to rectify the mistakes that our grandparents feel they made. For more on this, check out, This Is Biggest Regret in Life Most People Have. Many social psychologists posit the theory that the reason Millennials are so disillusioned with the institute of marriage is because divorce rates peaked in the early 1980s, which means that, unlike Baby Boomers, many of today's adults grew up understanding the devastation that comes when things don't work out. The lives of those whose parents stayed together probably wasn't a picnic either, as many of us know what it's like to grow up in a household that resembled a perpetual war zone. Being single can be hard, and lonely, but for many, it sure beats living in an endless cycle of arguments about who's supposed to do the dishes. Plus, we've seen how marrying someone you knew was wrong for you to begin with can end in tragedy. For a personal testimony on that, read up on how I Cheated on My Spouse. Here's What I Wish I Had Known Beforehand. When I went into the Yale Happiness Course, I already knew that making a lot of money doesn't make you happy.
