In theory being married is better for than you than being single, but there’s a twist…Is your marriage healthy? Many studies have found that married people are healthier than unmarried ones, and the longer you have been married, the healthier you are. If you were born before 1975, you are likely to be healthier than singletons; born after 1975, you are likely to be less healthy. For men, there is no link between marriage and health. So marriage seems to give a health benefit only if you are a woman born before 1975 who has been married for 10+ years.
