The desire to have a romantic partner is associated with lower life satisfaction, but more so in older adults - eviltoast

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
