A recent study showed that those who were married were more likely to recover after a heart attack. They also had a shorter hospital stay by about two days.The overall benefit of marriage outweighs the risk if it is a reasonable marriage.
Married folks tend to live longer, have less depression and are healthier than those who don't socialize. Socializing isn't based on your number of social media buddies. It's based on people you interact with face-to-face.
