>>15569031Relationships were a consequence of community and shared social spaces. Im not saying that modern day its literally impossible to foster community or get into a social club post education, but its certainly harder. atomization and lack of reliance on eachother (maybe from technology, maybe from our culture, who knows) makes it so we dont really interact with eachother anymore in a way thats conducive to relationships. I havent had a relationship since college and i havent really met or kept in contact with many new people since leaving college. I dont subscribe to the whole "bowling alone" social trust thing, I just don't think people have ways to form these social groups anymore, not that they dont want to do it.
TL:DR we dont talk anymore
