As someone who did his relationship forming in a different era, I have a few thoughts. First, the internet wasnt there. Now you can satisfy so many personal needs without standing up. Let alone talking to a real person. Second, people have become more transactional. Whats in this for me... So they arent expecting to offer up more time or effort without a guaranteed return..So budding relationships never get off the ground. And material lifestyles demand more time at work. So there is less leasure time for many people..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Lot of truth here. Social media has defo hindered the real physical aspect of relationships. People don't have to put out the real true effort to maintain one. It's easy to play it and discard it if it doesn't suit them.

@Magenta And I honestly believe that both sides expect to get at least as much out of a relationship as they put in.. Too much stress and it is easy to quit..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman And you don't have to face them in RL so it's easier to quit. It's kind of sad to me that society has become this.

I'm so thankful for my RL relationships. They are solid!
