The Four Kinds of Singles
Let’s chat about how a smart psychology person, Professor Peter McGraw, breaks down single people into four types. He looks at the cool characters from Sex and the City to figure this out.
Waiting for the Perfect Match – ‘Some Day’ Singles
Meet the folks who think, “Someday I’ll find my person.” Characters like Charlotte in Sex and the City wait for the perfect partner, like in fairy tales. They want a long-term, serious relationship and don’t rush into things.
Living Life While Open to Love – ‘Just May’ Approach
Other characters, like Carrie and Miranda, are more like, “I’m single now, but maybe I’ll find love.” They’re open to a relationship but won’t put their dreams on hold. They’re like, “I gave it a shot, didn’t work out, but I love my life.”
Changing Ways People Stay Single Today
Look at how things are changing. More people are choosing to live alone or get married later. Numbers show that more women and men in the UK are doing their own thing, living solo.
Happy Being Single – ‘No Way’ Lifestyle
Some people are super happy being single forever. They’re not interested in dating or relationships. Characters like The Dude from The Big Lebowski are famous for this. They love their freedom and don’t feel like something’s missing.
Doing Things Differently – ‘New Way’ Explorers
Check out the characters like Samantha, who do things in their own way. They don’t follow traditional rules. They live life boldly and don’t let society’s ideas about relationships hold them back.
Conclusion: Being Happy in Your Own Way
Remember, it’s okay to be single and happy. Whether you dream of finding ‘the one,’ are open to love (‘Just May’), love being solo (‘No Way’), or do things differently (‘New Way’), your journey is cool and unique.
