520 $a This study is a phenomenological investigation into the lived experience of singlehood as perceived by 10 professional African American women who had never married. Participants were interviewed, and transcriptions were analyzed following phenomenological methods and procedures. The qualitative software program NUD*IST 4 was used to organize and analyze data.
520 $a Eleven themes emerged consistent with this group of women's experiences: (a) Singleness as Freedom and Independence, (b) Singleness as Burdensome Self-Reliance, (c) Singleness as Stigma, (d) Singleness as Blaine, (e) Singleness as Loss and Grief, (f) Singleness as Faith and Spirituality, (g) Singleness as a Catalyst for Growth and Opportunity, (h) Singleness as Choice, (j) Singleness as Pressure, (k) Singleness as a Temporary Life-Stage, and (l) Singleness as Self-Acceptance and Well-Being. These themes addressed the personal dynamics and issues faced by professional African American women who had never married. The study found that never-married women are aware of the advantages and disadvantages of living as a single woman, as well as the internal and external factors that attribute to their singleness. However, regardless of their desire to marry or remain single, the participants described their lives as very satisfying and meaningful.
