Honestly these two generations would rather be avatars than live a human experience and connect with them since reality is shytty for most folks in these generations. We would rather live through the phone or on social media since it’s effortless to do so. Like take this forum for example you talk with a lot of posters but how many of them could you actually see yourself being friends with in reality. I guarantee for most posters on here that percentage is super low.

No judging here. I'm the same. I got 2 regulars that hold me down. So at this point I have no incentive to actively chase a bytch unless her choosing signals are super strong and she's pleasant to be around.

Completely summed up the situation perfectly.The internet did a number on people, social norms and interaction. Pumped a lot of anxiety into basic engagements between sexes. People viewing each other's sex as opposition. Expectations are high returns are low. A pool of shallow shyt people. No one wants to build just find perfection, so they can flaunt him/her on socials. Anything less is settling. So they all wait for the next because there are plenty just more is not better. There's always more out there, no need to value what you have.
Some of the best relationships you will ever see are with people who grew together watched each other struggle and glow up. Invested time with each other. People want that without the work like relationships can be had the same way we get most of our other fixes with instant gratification. But the Netflix and Amazon's of love, the dating apps... offer thrill but not much fulfillment. It's gonna be some harsh living for a lot of people in these generations full of shallow narcissists. Everyone isn't the prize. A lot of people should have settled. Humble yourselves.
People don't want to trust each other and grow together. They're being conditioned to see people as disposable products rather than human beings with malleable hearts and souls.

Here's a thing no one is perfect, everyone has flaws. You can sign up for a dating site today scroll through 100 women talking about long term, settling down bla bla and make note of their profile, delete and sign back up a year from now and 90% of those chicks will still be on that app.

She made good points. I'll add with over time gender roles have have been diluted due feminism and individualism.
Edit. This a result if capitalism turning people into individual spenders and not partners. This wasn't by accident.

I was having a convo with my nephews that are 22-24. I explained to them how at their age, I went to a grocery store, saw a good looking woman, hollered at her, waited at the bus station to holler more and get the number. Nobody’s likes rejection but it is part of the game and built a man character.Either you took the L and move on or you become an incel. Assuming, you are average looking, it didn’t matter if I was rejected 100 times, it only takes one woman that will like you and she can become your wife.
Think people are increasingly committed to being less vulnerable, or only "open" or "vulnerable" from the distance of social media posts or texts.
You can look at a lot of things like text messages as one indicator, of avoidance. Also, the way a lot of people WALK with their phone like a protective blanket.
Would also point to social media "value signaling" as a important part. Moving people into tighter and tighter categories. And labeling buzz words, I saw something yesterday that was trying to pitch "zombieing" as the new ghosting, and some influencer posted it, so it will catch on
but the definition to me, and the explanations behind it, were pretty bizarre. Basically, if someone you went out with a few times, texts you, months later. That's zombieing someone. That's it.
And they had this whole breakdown of pathological behavior, and respecting yourself. I do that all the time! I think about someone, and have some reason to text, so I do. That's like a connection to someone, that's valuing people regardless of their "status", that's how you ideally build relationships in general. Either you date me right now forever, or BYE.

Shows like the grapevine that instigate and make genders see each other like the enemy. Gay men who constantly are leading the charge against shytting on straight men. Majority of black women I’ve noticed will let a gay black man lead them and tell them how bad straight black men but will never critoze themselves.
The internet and dating apps turned women into monsters and men into losers.
