Hm. Suppose it depends on the reason. If it's something you've chosen, nothing wrong with that.
"Must be something wrong" probably isn't a helpful start.. could be they're shy, or have had a difficult previous experience, or some other personal situation that holds them back in some way.
But for me, "must be something wrong" isn't a useful place for anyone to begin.
Just my 2 cents..  |

"If you're mid-aged and still single, must be something wrong with you. Agree, disagree?"
Disagree. You could be middle aged and newly single (divorced etc) or single by choice. You don’t have to be in a relationship to be ‘normal’.
Nothing wrong with being single and happy! |

I, the male half of this couple, was single from my late thirties to late forties through choice and lived my best life. I had a few wonderful FBs, travelled, a wide circle of friends. I deliberately avoided relationships and dated married women or women who were happy with no prospect of a relationship but wanted good company and sex. Then I fell in love with one of the married women who luckily split up from an unhappy marriage and my life got awesomely even better, most unexpectedly. Two kids and a house together later I still can’t believe how lucky I am. For me, it was lucky she didn’t think there was something off about a single middle aged man. |

Definitely not, not everybody wants or needs a partner. I think the view you expressed comes out of fear of being alone as you grow old, like those friends that agree to get married if they are still single at 50 or something

Disagree entirely. Even if it's just a generally single that includes divorced and widowed people that have had long term relationships.
Even more so if it's the idea that someone who hasn't got married by a certain point is faulty. Some people don't want to commit to that. And that's okay.
I'm happy dating people who have been single for decades, people who are divorced, and people who are married as long as their wife is on board with the situation 💜 |

Disagree.
I have a few friends in their 50s who are single. There's nothing wrong with them they just prefer the single life.
I don't think being in a minority group albeit a large one means there's anything wrong with you |

Definitely disagree with your statement. I'm single because I choose to be single, doesn't mean there is anything wrong with me
Ok, maybe I'm a bit weird and scatty at times, not sure if that makes it something wrong me 😂😂 |

Ignoring that there are a load of people either divorced or widowed, including the equivalents who weren't married, some people just don't want long-term relationships. |

I've never been married and I'm well past middle aged (certainly by societies definition and how people act around here)!
I've had two long-term significant relationships (one 30+ years). In both cases, the partners in question, had terrible first marriage experiences and simply had no desire to go there again. It didn't bother me one bit.
I'm not religious or one to need paperwork to prove commitment and I certainly don't consider being single my entire life, means there is something wrong with me. It's just the way things played out. |

What is classed as middle aged?
I'm 41 on Thursday, seperated from an 18 year relationship with 3 children. Ive got no plans for another relationship right now as I want to enjoy being me.
Why should there be anything wrong with me?
I don't understand why people feel the need to judge or label everyone else. |

"It's not about me, but yes, in my opinion there's definitely something off with you if still single "
Wow, just fucking wow. How to win friends and influence people....

Absolutely nothing wrong with being single? Why not? I travel a massive amount, and I love this lifestyle and want that aspect in my life. So I need to find a lady thats willing for me to be away a lot and swing! Good luck with that one I hear you say  |

I honestly can’t believe the absurdity and ignorance that conceived this thread.
No single person’s situation or life will have been the same. What if people are single because they escaped an abusive relationship and don’t want to risk that sort of thing happening again, is there something wrong with them OP?
Or people who are single because their partner died, is there something wrong with them too OP?
Does the whole world need to conform to your narrow minded view of the world OP, or can you perhaps realise that it ain’t all about you and nobody needs your seal of approval to live their lives how they want
