Being single could help you live longer
Socializing and feeling like you are part of the community is important for maintaining your mental health.
Single people have a lower body mass index (BMI.)
That’s according to a study published in the Journal of Family issued in 2015.
Experts found that single adults, no matter their sexual orientation, have a lower body weight.
On the other hand, those who live with a partner tend to have a higher BMI.
The Western Washington University study looked at 20 years data of more than 3,000 participants.
