What's the key ingredient to a more fulfilling life? According to a new poll by YouGov, the answer might be marriage.

When asked "how truly fulfilling, if at all, do you think life can be if you never marry or have a long-term partner," 29 percent of respondents said "not at all." Though that was the most common response, it was not a dominant sentiment.

As the poll's data chart also shows, Americans seem slightly more concerned about having a partner than having children or owning a home.

The poll found that most of those who chose to have children do not regret their decision. Eighty-nine percent of American parents, according to the poll, are glad they chose to have children, though the percentage is slightly lower for those who make under $40,000 annually.
