Fun Holidays - Singles Awareness Day

Singles and divorced men live on average 7 years less than married men. This is due not only to the fact that the spouse, as a rule, cares about the health of her beloved. Life in a family is more orderly and measured and, no matter how much single men swagger, it provides protection from excessive psychological stress. “Lone Wolves” who stubbornly refuse to go to the registry office celebrate a fun Single Life Awareness Day on February 15th. This comic holiday is a symbol of the triumph of their choice - existence without a family and obligations to a partner. Singles Awareness Day is celebrated not only by men, but also by women from Russia and Western countries. A similar holiday exists in the East - in China and South Korea, where traditional family values ​​are treated with special reverence. Open relationships and meetings with representatives of the opposite sex are preferred by established people who are not alone in the global sense of the word. They simply believe that in order to feel happy, it is not necessary to have a family or live with someone in a civil marriage. History traces the origins of Singles Awareness Day to Justin Barnes, who organized an unusual celebration for his single friends. The American first celebrated Singles Awareness Day on February 15 with a group of friends in 2001. With his light hand, the holiday became popular at the University of Mississippi - the place of study of D. Barnes. Considering that there are a lot of single people in the modern world, the number of fans of the celebration has increased year by year. Flirting, courtship and romantic relationships are important in any return. “All ages are submissive to love,” said A.S. Pushkin. In "War and Peace" L.N. Tolstoy talks about the importance of the family, which, according to the writer, is the basis for the formation of the human soul. More than 100 years have passed since the novel was written, many attitudes and life values ​​of people have changed. The holiday, which follows Valentine's Day, is intended to emphasize that having a partner and marriage are by no means prerequisites for happiness. Bachelors serve as a reason for endless jokes and philosophical reflections. According to psychologists, a man’s choice of a lonely lifestyle is not always the result of love and a craving for freedom. Often this is a consequence of strong emotional dependence on the mother, mental trauma suffered and reluctance to take responsibility for the family. “Medicine teaches that bachelors usually die crazy, while married people die without going crazy,” wrote A.P. Chekhov. Singles Awareness Day defends the right of single people to live the lifestyle they choose, regardless of society's opinions. Yes, they may have no one to confess their love to on Valentine’s Day, but they don’t see this as a big tragedy. Living alone has its pros and cons, which men and women, celebrating the funny holiday of February 15, discuss in the company of like-minded people. Going to a pub or restaurant to celebrate Singles Awareness Day is not only a great excuse to have a drink, but also a chance to meet your other half there. This means gaining new life experience and, perhaps, trying to give up loneliness after all.
