| Abstract: | A recent local study titled Sustaining Relationships: Couples and Singles in a Changing Society (PFWS, 2016) brought to light a number of interesting facts on relationship behaviour in Malta. This study, based on a representative sample of 2465 persons, found that two thirds of respondents were in a relationship while one third were not. Of the 823 respondents who were not in a relationship, over two thirds gave a lack of interest as their main reason, while 15% said that they have not yet met the right person. Only 8.7% of those not in a relationship stated that they were unhappy, or very unhappy, at being single. |
