All that awaits those ones is dementia, cancer or heart disease. And that's if you're lucky.

Based on some very limited research* into this, I've an inkling that this is apocryphal, in that the statistics seem to imply a correlation that's not there. Rather than it being unmarried men who end up heading towards these things, and ill health and all kinds of other miserable stuff like still wearing your school uniform at 50 and owning one plate, what's actually the case is that it's a predisposition to these things in the first place that lead one to not being the marrying type. In other words, the ladies can shniff it off you.

The point was that some relationships don't end badly. The counterpoint was that given enough time, they all do.

you can't really hold relationships themselves accountable for ending due to mortality though
