It has been said that the healthiest people are those who are over 40 and yet remain single. It is no more about being the pitied singles. In fact single over 40 people enjoy greater health than the married folks, according to a survey.

It is nothing wrong for those who get along single anyways. In fact if that happens to be a conscious choice it often makes some people happier and most certainly healthier than being in a married relationship.

In fact being over 40 and yet never getting married is one of the key factors of older, happier people. They seem to be even more resourceful than their married counterparts.

These people are also high on self sufficiency and tend to be more able to take care of themselves.

They are also more stable in their emotional well being. A recent study by psychologist at Lafayette College in Easton, PA, has revealed this truth. Jamila Bookwala, an associate professor of the College, has reported this research in the “Journal of Social and Personal Relationships”.
