I disagree with the fact that one stays happier if he stays unmarried. Not only does he miss out on a whole lot of joy, he also misses out on some key lessons in life.
Yes, being unmarried brings about quite some discounts in one's duties. An unmarried man does not need to care for another lady; neither does he have to care for any children. All he needs to consider for within his family is his parents. As such, much more money and time can be saved for himself.
However, having a partner adds a different perspective to life. Most often, this perspective encompasses joy. After being married, one now has a someone to depend on; someone to trust; somone to love. Through this relationship, much more can be accomplished such that life can be lived to its fullest. The happiness felt when two people achieve something together is indescribable.
This achievement can take the form of giving birth to and nurturing a child. Nevertheless, many lessons can be learnt from raising a child. Disciplining a child is not an easy task becasue you need to be firm and loving simultaneously. If the job is not done properly, the child may make the same mistake again, or may bear a hatred for his parents. None of these is preferred - thus there is a need to discipline a child well. It is a skill to do so effectively; one that has to be learnt over time. Once mastered, it can be applied to one's job, teaching juniors how to improve.
All in all, staying unmarried shuns away many tiring and busy experieces of life. However, going through these experiences would certainly bring about much enrichment.
