A study published in Personal Relationships found that among single individuals aged 18 to 75, those who had a stronger desire for a romantic partner generally reported lower life satisfaction. Interestingly, this association was more pronounced in individuals above the age of 49 compared to those below 24, highlighting the impact of age on the relationship between desire for a partner and quality of life. ...

Insight: is it realistic to anyone in observed real life that people more desire to find a romantic partner as they less/really don’t enjoy life overall? So, will a person be prone to chasing a lovelife when he doesn’t live well and happily?

Furthermore, Unsatisfied life has a negative effect to relationship building and further even marriage and family too (I’ve read articles and heard memoirs and watched entertainment variously many times, and so I agree. Maybe with diligence, I’ll put such article references asap.) So how could a person achieve/suceed lovelife if he’s already (in the beginning) unsatisfied with every other aspect of his life wholly while his any latter relationship may apparently fail upon his unsatisfied life? A contradiction or paradox? He might end up into hopeless romantic or just pathetically miserable man/spouse (hopefully not).

Out of topic: I wish there were a (sister) community of meirl, a discussion and seriousness of focusing and analyzing the real life (opposite of meirl community sharing of memes, pics and short texts).

    i get that even researching shit that is obvious and straightforward is worthwhile just in case were missing something, but ‘people whose romantic needs are not satisfied report being unsatisfied’ becomes a little tiring when combined with the ridiculous amount of shit we have way too little data on
