36. I was never married at 40
It has much to recommend it, at least for a woman. Supposedly, married men do live longer and report being happier, but there is no such advantage for females. I doubt I would have ever married if the insurance companies hadn't basically made it mandatory in order for me to survive.

Who cares what is "common these days?" If you are happy, then who cares what the mass of men choose to do. Life is not Noah's Ark, we don't have to go two by two. Do what is right for you.
