I think it’s multi causal: - lack of social norms and established best practices around courtship. (Man making the first move, how to start the conversation etc.) - a lot of communication happens publicly and has a permanent record - so mistakes are more punished - Being approached is likely to be perceived as more negatively/creepy (me too movement etc.) - Having fewer things in common. (In the 90s, everyone watched the same movies, read similar books etc..) - Overabundance of alternative entertainment / having fun on your own - Different dating behavior introduced by Tinder & Co with more short term/immediate reward loops Here’s what I think isn’t the reason: - “Those kids always being on their phones” (aren’t we all?) - New generations being inherently less social
