It would be useful to see some study results to back some of the claims. Have the numbers of people living alone really skyrocketed?

I think the session attaches a negative shade to living alone. In order to better understand why people live alone, the session should be unbiased. People who are living alone out of their will, will have good reasons. I agree that not all bad relationships are bound to end but the technological advancements and the social security help decrease the fear of loneliness and helplessness that remain after a relationship ends. Abusive and toxic relationships exist and they existed in the past, too. The technological advancements and the social security that we see today do not drive the decision of separation but merely facilitate it.
