Hi Devaki, loneliness, lack of intimacy or physical connection, I believe, is up there with pre-diabetes in its prevalence. If we do the math, (divorced and alone) + married and alone (silent divorcee's) + singles (looking waiting, wanting) = more than 50%, aka majority of adult population. No 'we're friends' and friendship doesn't cut it .... unless of the 'with benefits' kind. Any studies? Interested in your thoughts .... too negative or close to the mark? Bernie
Interesting about more younger women feeling less need for intimacy. Thanks for this article Dr B.
