New survey finds over half of Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 do not have a romantic partner.

, founder and president of the Smart Dating Academy, says a few factors could be influencing these numbers. She says millennials might avoid rush into relationships at a young age to avoid mistakes that their divorced or dysfunctionally married parents may have made; they believe more in the soulmate concept than previous generations; and they may have been told to focus on their careers and getting their own lives in order first.

The year 2018 also saw the highest number of 18 to 34-year-olds who reported having no children, and was the second lowest year for the number of people in this age group who reported being married and living with their spouse.

Glad i can help those statistics 👌

True

Today people between 18 & 34 are so extreme no wonder they do not have a romantic partner

New study shows... half of that half is gay... not a problem... just a study I did

Also 40+

people are scared of love because they haven't really found it ...the 5th power sits in the heart region and not below ...and not above ...if people used this power to its fullest effect there would be no wars and no killings of any kind ...so easy and yet so distorted ...

Because most are figuring out what gender they are 😂😂😂

I’m in that unfortunate half

Friends with benefits!!!

Males are not stepping up to the plate! Mamma’s spoiled boys. Clean yourselves up, get a job, save some $ & find someone who you’re worthy of. Respect & Love them. Make an honorable commitment! No sex before marriage!

How can you? Men can’t be masculine and women have been told men are poison? What do you expect?

Does this work as a pick up line?

What does romantic partner even mean in 2019

ThinktKenny Caleb__Frye Yall aint alone

Thank the older generation. Y’all don’t know how many older women have told me and my friends to not get married.

And I can’t get a text back 😝

That’s because people are trash

This is a disaster going somewhere to happen! See beautiful Chinese Robot giving News this morning on Twitter what a story on Chinese IT as well! Maybe Robots will replace humans in future! Personally like way now but half of Americans between 18 and 34 have no romantic partner?!

Thats a shame. Whats the issue?

Because they can’t pick a damn gender

This is sad

I rather smoke marijuana then be in a relationship...oh wait I am in a relationship with weed lol (I know that was stupid)

Fleshlight biz is booming! 🤣

And that’s the way it is ... plp quelevamohacer 🤣😂

That’s because they don’t have social skills anymore thanks to social media.

God Damit!!!!!

loves fun for just 3 months anyway

😥😭

And half of married people don't have a romantic partner.

with a 53% divorce rate I interpret that statistic as meaning 50% of that age group are quite happy. The implication that U have to be partnered up to be happy or fulfilled or content is probably why there is a 53% divorce rate.

Am looking for one any one😂

It seems to me that the reason is that the same age group can’t decide what gender they are.

You screwed up 20/20

That’s great 😃 who needs one anyways 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Mellenials hah

Our society is melting down. Some thing new will follow. Impossible to predict what. I predict America will be technologically annexed, and nobody will notice or care.

Weird what happens when you sexualize the entire culture.

The end of the world is better enjoyed alone.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to be solo. I am 50, and I am very happy solo.

...I told you this in confidence...!

Good to know I’m not alone in this plight

thankfully my wife has her boyfriend to keep her company.

People just don’t trust each other anymore and cheating is so easy now.

feminism

Lucky bastards.

thats cuz millinials cant afford a night out

Oh good it's not just me

Some people are happy single. I would say it’s better to be single than in an unhappy relationship.

Nothing more to say

Good more for SportsTalkBarry

That’s almost 50%!

MILLENIALS ARE KILLING LOVE

My spouse has never been a romantic partner; we've been married for 32 years, there's more to life than romance!

That's okay enjoy life. Marriage is a long time commitment

really? maybe in america there is a better choice for me if my loved one does not want me and i have to look for a new love....

First time I’ve heard of the “fallacy of abundance” theory. Pretty fascinating.

MGTOW

Nope, to worried about the next best thing, how much it is, or they just breed. Some are also into same sex or heavy drugs.

Facts

Is this supposed to make me feel young or just hopeless. 😢

That generations does sex hook ups instead. Really sad.

Probably can't afford to

At any given moment? Or never had?

Please enlighten me about this? And why?

Trés grave

😭😭😭😭

Because of tinder
