As Valentine’s Day approaches, finding a soul mate no longer seems to be a priority for younger generations, whether by choice or due to societal and economic constraints.<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The trend is clear. Singlehood is on the rise in many countries<\/b>. More and more people are choosing not to enter into relationships or get married, and are delaying or giving up on having children.<\/b> This evolution reflects a profound cultural shift, driven by economic and social conditions that are transforming traditional life trajectories. This is a real shift from<\/b> previous generations<\/b>, for whom the couple-marriage-baby pattern was naturally perceived as the norm and a form of fulfillment.<\/p>\n

The number of single young adults has doubled in 50 years<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The world is entering a new era of marriage. According to a survey by The Economist, the proportion of young adults (aged 25-34) without a spouse has almost doubled in 50 years in rich countries. In the United States, this status applies to around 50% of men and 41% of women. As a result, the decline in the marriage rate has led to the emergence of nearly 100 million additional singles<\/b> in just a few years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Europe, according to Eurostat,the number of households consisting of an adult living alone<\/b> (without another adult or child) increased significantly between 2015 and 2024:<\/b> +16.9% over this period. In 2024, 75 million European households were made up of single adults (without children), showing a clear increase in single or non-marital living among the adult population<\/b>. Another source based on Eurostat data indicates that around 30% of young adults in the European Union still live with their parents.<\/p>\n
