Summary

No matter how far we’ve come, there is still a stigma in society for people who choose to remain single for longer than the average person.

Matt, Stephen, and Audrey discuss why “single-shaming” persists and how to avoid feeling the pressure from society in influencing your decisions about your romantic life.
