Re: China currently has over 58 million people living alone and the total number of households exceeds 14%.
, Li Jingjing, who lived alone in Handan, Hebei, told reporters that after graduation, he rented a more than 40 - Square - meter rental house in a residential area not far from the unit, and began to live alone for many years. Li Jingjing said, "I have been living here since I first came to work, and I have been used to it for 12 years. My little space is very good."
speaking of his own living life now, this year, 36 years old Li Jingjing feel quite a lot, looking at his peers married, the family members of a round life, and also want to become a home.
Li Jingjing said to the reporter: "is the colleagues and friends in the introduction, basically is two marriage, because the same age of the man who did not marry, basically is not, or is not the marriage of a couple of years with the child, anyway is divorced, you said I did not marry you let me find a two marriage I feel that I can't accept it mentally. "
reporter also visited Fuyang in Anhui. The local lady told a reporter that she was forty-five years old this year. Ten years ago, she left her children and her husband for a career, and went to the city of Fuyang alone. Over the years Ms. Fu has been living alone. She feels at home from work every day, feeling empty, undisturbed and unattended.
Ms. Fu said: "sure to be lonely, especially ten years ago, when children were ten years old, they came to the city of Fuyang, every day to think of children, and sometimes see others take their children to take care of their children, go to school, eat, I watch people with tears."
the reporter has learned that the number of successful women, such as Ms. Fu, is not very small. After the advancement of women's economic status and independence, it is no longer as too dependent on the family as in the past, but more concerned with its own development, in order to better realize its own value.
another survey showed that the number of young "one person households" between 20 and 39 years old was close to 20 million households. The situation of "one person household" in the middle and old age is higher than that in men. The proportion of men in the "one person household" from 20 to 64 years old is much higher than that of women. However, unlike the middle-aged and elderly people who live alone because of widowhood and empty nest, the "one family" of young adults is mostly due to the fact that they are not yet able to survive.
relative to the rising number of "one person households" in cities is the age of first marriage for urban youth over a year. Many young people postpone their first marriage, or even live alone. Dong, a doctor in Fuyang, Anhui, is still single and living alone at the age of thirty-five. He told reporters that he lived alone because he didn't have the ability to marry at the moment.
according to Dr. Tung, there are a lot of such solitary people around him, some are not allowed by material conditions, and some are reluctant to accept life after marriage.
Dr. Dong said: "most of what I have encountered is a lack of material, and a kind of love to live alone and not to talk about friends. He is addicted to the Internet. He lives in an illusory world, does not need to go shopping with people, and does not need to coax a girlfriend. It feels like a person eating, drinking and recreation. A place to vent. "
foreign solo people: freedom of life
according to a reporter, in August 2014, the US Bureau of labor statistics showed that in the United States, the number of people who were single in the United States for the first time exceeded married people for the first time, and the proportion of the population over 16 years old was 50.2%, that is, 124 million 600 thousand. In 1950, the ratio was only 22%.
in Australia, because of the estranged relationship between people, more and more Australians have begun to transfer their emotional attachment and confession to their pets, especially those who live alone. Many people feel that they do not need human partners when they have the loyalty of their animal companion.
in the housing problem, because of advocating free life, many people will choose to rent a lifetime. Because for some Australians, after buying a house, no matter how much repayment is, it is always a burden. But for themselves, it is not because they can't afford to buy a house, but because they prefer to change their living environment.
of course, in many countries, because of the early independence of their children, the elderly living alone is not unusual. However, because social security is in place, alone in this case, less lonely and helpless, more comfortable and steadfast.
