The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of never-married women.  Nineteen participants were interviewed.  The results revealed a positive attitude toward and evaluation of these women’s single life option.  Almost all the participant enjoyed the freedom of being single.  Most of the source of stress was coming from parents.  At the same time, family was also the major support system.  Most participants agreed that there were negative stereotypes against never-married people; they did not feel any of that type of discrimination in their personal lives.  Regarding their attitudes toward marriage, the results indicated a conflicting picture.  On one hand, the participants agreed that women have to sacrifice themselves (including time, space, interests, and personal goals) in marriage.  On the other hand, they also expected to be married in the future.  The results also challenge the traditional developmental psychology theories, and the traditional meaning of marriage for women.  More research and discussion is needed to explore the meaning of marriage for men and women in the current society.
