My Choice Isn’t Marriage or Loneliness - The New York Times - "I broke up with my boyfriend of five years during quarantine, but not because we had fallen out of love... Under the subheading, “What This Doesn’t Mean,” I wrote: “That I don’t love you anymore.”... here I was, alone and equally desperate for connection, breaking up with my boyfriend of five years, even though nothing between us had broken... I longed — not to be alone, not to be without love, but for freedom and autonomy. Since we had gotten together, I had felt our identities weaving into a beautiful quilt, and I didn’t see how to disentangle myself without alienating the man I loved. I was somebody without him. I knew this, but others didn’t seem to. Even when I was by myself, people always asked me about him, their remarks dropping me into a future — of marriage, children and muted desires — that I had not signed up for. I wanted my identity back. I wanted to unravel. As soon as I got back, I suggested an open relationship, something I had wanted from the beginning. I saw it as a step toward establishing myself as a romantic and sexual entity outside of my relationship... Many times, I thought I had a classic fear of commitment, but I knew it was more complicated. I was resisting something greater than our individual relationship, and my resistance was political. A day before I sent Malcolm the email saying I wanted to break up, I came across a term online: solo polyamory. It described a person who is romantically involved with many people but is not seeking a committed relationship with anyone. What makes this different from casual dating is that they’re not looking for a partner, and the relationship isn’t expected to escalate to long-term commitments, like marriage or children. More important, the relationship isn’t seen as wasted time or lacking significance because it doesn’t lead to those things. I wasn’t comfortable identifying as polyamorous then. My desire for something nontraditional was a source of shame and questioning. But for once, in the vast literature on love, I felt seen. I liked how solo polyamory cherished and prioritized autonomy and the preservation of self, and I found its rejection of traditional models of romantic love freeing. When Malcolm and I first told friends and family about our open relationship, we were met with verbal lashings and gross generalizations, including that this was “not something Black people did.” Much later, I realized they viewed our arrangement as a personal attack on an institution they wanted to believe in. In some ways, this attack was the rebellion I had been seeking."
LIZ JONES: Wish me a lonely Christmas and spare a thought for the millions of women like me - "I have done my Christmas food shop. There I was in my local supermarket, surrounded by harassed mums with lists longer than their arms, trolleys groaning. It made me feel more alone than ever. I stood in the queue, the only person with a basket. Contents: one bottle of vintage Cava, six sprouts, two potatoes, one onion, Cox's apples and nuts in shells. I sobbed a bit lobbing these into my basket, as I knew I would never be able to crack the almonds without the help of my former husband."

Meme - "Dating at 30 has been so disheartening.
It's been a clusterfuck. I somehow encountered a few virgins, and most of them have been bizarrely perverted with weird ideas of what sex/intimacy is like. One guy said he wanted to chew on my tongue and suck my boob like an "innocent baby". Another guy thought I wanted videos of him rubbing his ass cheeks. One guy thought it was funny that I brushed my teeth at night. He said he would start brushing at night for me, but flossing daily was a hard no. One guy said I needed to have like 6 kids if we were together. One guy was immediately apparently a narcissist who thought we weren't getting along because he's too funny. Um no, it's because you're rude and obnoxious. If I talk to someone who is like 27, they will mention me being older frequently like it's a fetish. I tried to give the r/foreveralone type guys a chance, but it turns out* there's a reason why they're forever alone. Honestly, dating as a 30 year old makes me think most people who are single my age have something really wrong with them. I broke up with my bf because I thought I could find a better match (edit: he was mean to me). Where are these better matches at exactly? This is depressing as hell.
*in my experience
Edit: I have met good people too, just to be clear. I don't EXCLUSIVELY attract weirdos. Even though it seems like it sometimes..."
Lunkhead on X - "Asked my wife (a self-described “moderate” Taylor Swift fan) why she thinks Swift is so popular. Her response: “she’s a 32 year old woman who acts like a 16 year old girl in a world full of 32 year old women who act like 16 year old girls.” Hard to argue with that."

Australian woman who slept with over 300 people in one year reveals why she did it - "In her fun-filled 365 days, Annie bed more than 300 people - even shacking up with five over a 24 hour period. OnlyFans is a path many have taken in recent years, as it seemingly provides a massive income to thousands. On the site, Annie claims to make an impressive $1,000 a day and is apparently in the top 0.4 creators on the platform. She credits her consistency on the platform for her success... "I felt empowered afterward," she said of her rampant sex life. "Sex makes me feel good. It’s meant to make you feel good. "It's just fun and exciting. "It's messy; the messier the sex the better." As to how she finds so many sexual partners, she says it's a mixture of OnlyFans collaborations, dating apps, and about eight 'regulars' she sees every week. Annie claims that some of the men she sleeps with want a little bit of a cuddle before the main bit, but she's 'not about that'."
EXCLUSIVE: Australian woman who slept with 300 people in a year says she's strictly monogamous - but there's one racy rule all her boyfriends MUST abide by to date her - "She was dubbed 'Australia's most sexually active woman' after sleeping with 300 people in one year. But Annie Knight insists that she's strictly monogamous when it comes to relationships... the X-rated content creator said that there's one catch when it comes to dating her. 'They have to want to film content with me. If they don't, then I can't have a relationship with them - it's my job!' she said."

Women can't find men who make as much money as they do - "A good man is hard to find, especially in this economy. The country is facing a crisis of broke dudes, according to new research from Cornell University — and it’s left successful ladies single and disgruntled. In the study, published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, Cornell sociologists explored America’s declining marriage rate. They discovered a lack of financially eligible bachelors... Graduate student Isaac Suárez says he’s not turned off by a woman who means business — but he has found that his relationships tend to last longer when he makes a similar amount as his partner. “I have dated women with money . . . [and] full-time professional women tend to be busier, and it’s more difficult to find time to spend together,” says the 26-year-old, who lives in Portland, Ore. Thibodeaux says she knows it’s “not necessarily [a guy’s] fault” if he’s struggling financially. Still, given the circumstances, she’s had to devise a Plan B for her future: If Mr. Right doesn’t come along soon, she may just shack up with some lady friends at her professional level."

Jada Pinkett Smith Said The Oscars Slap Saved Her And Will Smith's Marriage - "As has now come to be expected, 2023 gave us a handful of new insights about the famous duo — perhaps most notably the revelation that they have been secretly separated for seven years... Jada emphasized that a divorce won’t ever be in the cards for her and Will: “I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce. … We will work through whatever.”... “He can’t be this perfect, idealized husband. I have to be able to accept him for the human he is.” As for the turning point in the separation period, Jada surprised fans by confessing it was the moment Will slapped Chris Rock in her defense at the 2022 Oscars when she realized they needed to work things out. “I was like, ‘I’m riding with you,’” she recalled of the incident during a public appearance earlier this year. “‘I didn’t come into this place as your wife, but I’m leaving here as your wife because we got a storm we’re going to have to deal with together.’”... “That moment of the shit hitting the fan is when you see where you really are,” she said. “After all those years trying to figure out if I would leave Will’s side, it took that slap for me to see I will never leave him.” She added, “Who knows where our relationship would be if that hadn’t happened?”"
