Would you rather be single and lonely or in a bad marriage? It’s the dilemma facing so many midlife women, says TRACEY COX. Here’s the right way to navigate being alone

What’s worse: being alone or being with someone who doesn’t make you happy?

This is something I’ve addressed in my books and discussed with friends many (many) times – without ever finding a definitive answer.

The reason why is because everyone’s view is intensely personal.

I would much rather be alone than lonely in a relationship; I know other women who say any half decent guy is better than no guy.

I talked to two women with very different viewpoints. One says stay no matter what, the other spread your wings and fly.

Both have advice to give.

Tracey Cox asks who is loneliest mid-life: a single woman or a woman in a bad or boring marriage?
