Psychologist Menelaos Apostolou, the lead author of the new study, focused his research on three factors that could influence people’s decisions to remain single: Sociosexuality refers to the willingness to engage in sex without commitment. High scorers tend to be more prone to casual sex and less interested in committed relationships. The Dark Triad refers to a set of noxious personality traits—namely, narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. High scorers tend to be manipulative and indifferent to the feelings of others, which can cause them to question the rationale for being in a long-term committed relationship. Career focus refers to individual differences in the willingness to focus one’s resources on advancing one’s career. People with high career focus also tend to deprioritize long-term relationships. For example, people who score high in career focus may not have enough time to devote to finding and keeping an intimate partner,” explains Apostolou. However, from an evolutionary perspective, human nature has in many ways been shaped to seek and maintain long-term intimate relationships. Not being in such a relationship can, for some, trigger negative emotions such as sadness and loneliness that motivates individuals to terminate their singlehood spell. “If people choose to stay single and to not have a family, they [may] frequently experience loneliness, a lack of purpose, sadness, and so on,” says Apostolou. 文章來源：https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/social-instincts/202206/3-qualities-can-push-you-toward-singlehood Powered by Firstory Hosting
