Publisher's Synopsis
Although man is a pack animal, the trend is increasingly towards one-person households. This does not necessarily mean that people in single apartments also live alone.
It shows first of all that these people need retreat areas where they want to live alone. There are now about 40 percent single-person households, but that is "only" just under 20 percent of the total population. That would be around 16 million people living alone. So much for statistics. On the Internet alone, seven million Germans are looking for a partner for life.
If you decide to live alone, you have good reasons - either by force (e.g. because your partner has died, got divorced or has decided to go into business) or consciously (because someone wants to enjoy his freedom or cannot stand it for long with another person at his side or does not notice a suitable partner).
Living alone does not necessarily mean living lonely and unhappy at the same time. On the contrary: Those who consciously decide to be alone enjoy all the freedoms of this world. He can do what he wants, does not need to show consideration for others and can arrange his life as he wishes and finds it beautiful - yes, he can determine his own happiness.
The number of single households is increasing steadily, especially in large cities. Urban planners are adapting to this by planning smaller apartments - especially those in which only one person feels comfortable with a small kitchen block, small bedroom and living/dining area. That is enough. And look in the supermarkets: They're increasingly finding single dishes, single portions, prepared salads and fruit bowls - all fast meals for one person. Of course, this has its price. Small portions are more expensive, but people living alone often have a lot of purchasing power, earn well, have qualified jobs: designers, teachers, engineers, pilots, stewardesses, programmers, managers and so on. Do you notice anything?
Often such jobs are not compatible with living together at all, because you are constantly on the road, living out of a suitcase or being a workaholic. The relationship falls by the wayside. And one more thing: women are increasingly opting for a career instead of a family, and are only having their children well over 30 years old - if at all.
Where it is suggested that the quota in management floors keeps top jobs free for women, they increasingly go this way and live alone, renouncing togetherness. And to be quite honest: Which craftsman would like to have a conversation with a lady in a boardroom? There is already a lack of eye level. Men's minds are still buzzing: "I am the strong one in the relationship, the breadwinner, I won't let a woman hold me back.
So you see, there are different motivations for being alone. And there are very few who are unhappy with your situation. They're all happy in their own way. But some of them are still searching, looking enviously at friends who have a family and enjoy having children - but they don't have to. Every life has its special advantages.
This eBook shows you how you too can best enjoy your solitude and the advantages it offers in all areas of life. So you can get even more out of your single life and live even happier.
