I just noticed that Christopher Ryan listed the Top 10 posts to his Psych Today blog (as determined by number of page views), so with my thanks to him for that fun idea, I'm going to do something similar. My list is for 2009 only (though I'll also add some all-time favorites at the end). Also, my 2009 list is a Top 12 rather than a Top 10. (It still has that nice alliteration.)

I'm in awe of Ryan's numbers. I'm not going to include precise numbers of page views corresponding to my Top 12. I'll just say that what qualifies as a mere honorable mention for Ryan (over 10,000 views) would make one of my posts a real star.

Here are the most viewed "Living Single" posts for the year 2009:

1. USA Today's Big New Story on Marriage Peddles Same Old Fallacies. (If you read this, you may also want to read the follow-up here, though it did not get as many page views as the original post.)

3. Do Relationships Need Lies to Survive?
4. Children of Single Mothers: How Do They Really Fare?

(Actually, there is a post that was the #3 most viewed for the year, but since I moved it to the Huffington Post, I haven't listed it above.)
