Studies report that people who’ve never been partnered tend to be less extraverted, less conscientious, and more neurotic.

Researchers sampled more than 77,000 individuals over age 50 to compare the Big Five personality traits of lifelong singles with those of people in a committed relationship. They found that lifelong singles reported lower levels of extraversion, openness, and conscientiousness compared to ever-partnered people and rated life satisfaction lower.
