在台灣新郎平均年齡33.9歲
結婚人數減 初婚年齡創新高

晚婚現象明顯，內政部統計，去年平均初婚年齡新郎31.6歲、新娘28.9歲，均較民國97年增加0.5歲，是歷年新高。去年初婚人數大幅減少，40年來首度跌破20萬人。
若統計去年結婚者年齡，包含初婚與再婚，去年新郎平均年齡33.9歲、新娘為30.3歲，與97年比較分別增加1歲及0.8歲。
去年實際結婚對數11萬6392對，較97年大幅減少3萬2033對。內政部分析，主要是去年適逢經濟不景氣、失業率提高以及孤鸞年，降低結婚意願所致。
內政部觀察，去年結婚人數大幅減少，主要是初婚人數驟降所致，屬於初婚的新郎及新娘40年來首度雙雙降至10萬人以下。
去年女性人口的初婚率為千分之27.6，較男性的千分之25.3高出2.3個千分點，兩者分別較97年驟減9.1及10.7個千分點。
國人越來越晚婚。去年平均初婚年齡新郎為31.6歲，新娘28.9歲，均較97年增加0.5歲，創新高紀錄。其中新郎以30至34歲者3萬5280人占36.94%最多，新娘以25至29歲者4萬3275人占43.75%最多。
去年結婚新人，新郎及新娘均為台灣籍者占81.3%，一方為大陸及港澳地區者占11.3%，一方為東南亞國籍者占4.8%，其他國籍者占2.5%。
觀察去年的再婚情況，平均再婚年齡新郎為44.7歲，新娘38.4歲，分別較97年增加1.2歲及1歲，也是創新高紀錄。女性再婚率僅千分之9.4，仍遠低於男性的千分之24.1，但男性再婚率已呈逐年遞減現象。
內政部分析，近年來女性再婚率約為男性的4成，未滿30歲女性再婚率雖高於男性，但35歲以上年齡組的離婚或喪偶女性再婚率遠不及男性，且隨年歲的增加落差愈大。

雖然知道是好意, 但感覺是壓力(只剩一年多?), 尤其知道我的大堂弟明年要結婚,. 仔細讀過壓力更大, 33.9歲有包括再婚的... 初婚(新名詞)年齡為31.6歲.... 哎呀.... 其實, 我父母算給的壓力小了, 母親不愛小孩, 不贊成婚姻, 父親不表示意見, 只有祖父母比較有期待. 知道了, 但這事, 不急...

Blessed...
Ever since I started dating Ms. Cake, my friends have been very happy for me. Of course, my policy has always been pretty open book on my own relationship. They know how things are going, usually.
As of recently, my friends have been updated that things have become official, I get a lot of "congratulations!" from friends, maybe it is because they like Ms. Cake. Or, maybe, it is because it has been a really long time for me. One of my best friend commented, "it must have been your longest single break", I counted 1.5 years, longest since 1996.
Some friends kept on asking, "you must be so happy!"...
YES I AM!
Ms. Cake is worth the wait, even though I am not into sweet...

給親愛的c咖朋友
請不要誤會, 我不是討厭你們, 只是你們的生活重心跟我不大一樣, 另一半比較重要, 也不是代表我們不再是朋友, 我覺得你應該多花時間與另一半計畫未來. 所以, 我不會因為你們放我鴿子, 玩無聊的home趴遊戲, 抱怨另一半, 一直給我看小孩/小狗照片而不開心.
其實, 我是羨慕你們的, 你們在人生的另一階段, 所以, 如果有困難, 還是可以讓我知道.
不過, 要提醒你們, 現在的離婚率那麼高, 你們的婚禮我大概也都有參與(如果不是我主持的話), 不要忘了當時的承諾, 祝你們百年好合!

我們這一班...Share
Today at 2:17am
前幾年國中的國文教科書開始收錄我的作品。
那時唸國中的兒子跑回來問我：爸，同學要我問你，你寫的那一課到底要考什麼？
我說：唉呀，我生平最痛恨考試的，我怎知道要考什麼？
考完試，我靈機一動，請兒子把考卷拿回來也讓我考，結果我只考了八十幾分。
兒子說：爸，你完了，我們班二十幾個人你只排名十幾。
這件事讓我覺得考試真是可怕。無獨有偶，我最近發現有人也有跟我一樣的經歷。
大陸的年輕作家韓寒做讀者寄來的他的文章大閱讀（考試的一個項目）只拿了沒幾分。
比我還慘的是的，我錯的多半是文法比較、修辭、辭義之類的題目，韓寒是連作者主旨都答錯了。
我鬆了一口氣，顯然把古今中外的作者組成一班來考國文的話，我下面應該還有人墊底才對！

是水還是樹?
有個心理學家是這麼說的, 兩個人的相處可以向兩滴水, 或是兩棵樹, 兩滴水的人可以融在一起, 時時刻刻不分離, 你的手機是我的, 我的內褲你也可以穿. 兩棵樹的人, 就需要各自的空間, 才能呼吸, 才能成長.
講的很有理, 但這是不是代表一滴水和一棵樹, 沒辦法在一起? 水可以灌溉樹, 不是很好嗎?
