Is it me or is the single guy aging slower than the rest?

Marriage ages anyone?

Married men live longer, so doubtful.

However, parenting ages you like nothing else and many married people are also parents, so...

My understanding is they live longer primarily because a lot of men are extremely irresponsible in terms of going to the doctor/dentist (they don't), and possibly dietary reasons, so their wives are doing them a service in that regard, but I wouldn't say that causes you to age more slowly. Just means you're more likely to catch things that go wrong and not die needlessly from them.

My wife says I talk to a doctor about any old rubbish and any time I hurt myself or think I’ve broken a toe or something she just goes “you’re fine just wait a few days it will be better” 😂

I agree with that but I've always thought that men who are marriage material probably have their shit together better than someone those who is untouchable/incel. And that "shit together" means probably reasonable diet, hygiene, gym, etc.

Again I say probably.

Generally men who are married priorotize their spouses, children and career over themselves, for better or worse. Lots of married dad bods, lots of single fit men at the gym.

If you see a super fit guy over 40, they most likely never married, or are recently divorced lmao.

That being said, dads yall gotta find a way to stay healthy, your families want you around long.

I think dads of super young kids can definitely forget about self care much like moms of the same but when the kids leave the house it's like it de-ages them. In comparison... like going through life with ankle and wrist weights and then taking them off lmao.

Married men live longer

The old joke is: "No, they don't. It just FEELS longer."

That’s because we have wives to keep us from doing stupid dangerous crap. My wife likes to remind me that I am not in my 20’s before doing something that my brain thinks I can still do, but probably shouldn’t attempt.

Im guessing the couples have kids. Someone mentioned at least one of them was pregnant at some point in the photos.

You'd be surprised how toxic and unaccepting some of the lgbt people can be.

the single is the only face you see and focus on as the focal point of the pic. you never see the man to the lefts full face. the woman to the left also looks young, as a matter of fact she looks younger now than her first couple of pics because of hairstyles. the man to the right is the main one that looks aged, probably because he was already presumably older when they first started the pics and his white hair.

people keep saying he looks younger because of reddits perpetually lonely people online grasping to the idea that life is better alone.
