“The standard of romantic love and relationships built by mass media, cultural norms and the superficiality of social media is a lost cause centred on narcissism,” Mason said.

“Isn’t singleness also a “gift” from the Lord to serve him, and thus become more holy? What is the difference then between being single or married if the goal of both is holiness? If marriage isn’t a milestone and an improvement upon singleness then what is the reason to be married?” PJ questioned.
