I'd rather be single than settle

Why are so many women staying single longer? Maybe because for the first time, we actually can.This week, we’re going down the rabbit hole on why women are getting married later, how financial independence completely changed the dating market, the male loneliness epidemic, and why our parents’ generation cannot seem to comprehend that being single in your 30s is not a medical emergency. Because when you’ve already built a life you love, a man isn’t competing with other men — he’s competing with your peace.We’re getting into the question every single woman has secretly asked herself: Are my standards too high, or have I just stopped accepting the bare minimum? Plus, Emma read your stories about marriage, kids, timelines and the pressure to “settle down” — and you guys made her bawl like a baby.Maybe women aren’t behind on marriage. Maybe marriage just isn’t allowed to be ahead of our happiness anymore.EPISODE SPONSORS:Go to Quince.com/TOOMUCH for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns.Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/toomuchFor a better way to stay hydrated, go to instanthydration.com/TOOMUCH and use promo code TOOMUCH for over 40% off your first subscription order - it’s Instant Hydration’s best offer availableGo to AquaTru.com now for 20% off using promo code TOOMUCH.
