Episode Synopsis

No matter how far we've progressed as a society, being single beyond a certain age carries some kind of social stigma.

We all know relationships can be amazing (when they're good at least). But why can't being single also be great?

The cultural story tells us: “Your life will finally make total sense when you meet the right person.”

Actually, it’s even worse than that. It says:

“Get a relationship, or else your life won’t have meaning.”

Yikes.

We dive in and argue why being single DOESN'T mean you're behind in life, and show how you can actually enjoy being unattached, even if you're looking for a long-term relationship for the future.
