Why modern day relationships are falling apart so easily?
We are the 90’s kids. There are a lot of things that we have
witnessed and were a part of. From spending hours and hours on Smart phones to
eating soil at the garden, we lived both. Moving away from positive aspects to
negative aspects, we’re probably the first generation who has lost the ability
to be in love as well. We date for the sake of dating. The only question
that remains is whether we'll be remembered for being the first generation to
accept a more logical and rational take on love or the generation that gave up
on it altogether.
Let’s just jump over the reasons to find why our generation is losing the capability to be in love.
1. We love perfection
We crave for perfection.
Today if we love someone and tomorrow if we find someone better than our
partner, we instantly “Fall in Love” with the “Better one”. The grass always seems greener on the other side. But who the
hell told you to look for greener grass?
2. We don’t seek love
Yes, this is the bitter truth of the city life. We are “Loving”
just for the sake of bringing excitement to our lives. We trust in spending
time together and not in creating memories. When the excitement fades, we start looking for some other person to bring that excitement back to our life.
3. We are a hookup generation
We get laid first and then decide if we are in love.
We are sexually “liberated”. Getting laid has become the new getting drunk. You
do it not because you love the other person, but because you want to feel good.
We need temporary fulfillment. Our physical needs are dominating our emotional
needs. Sex outside a relationship isn't a taboo anymore. Relationships are very
simple; open relationships, friends with benefits, causal flings, one-night
stands, no strings attached – we've left very little exclusivity for love in
our lives.
4. We are money-minded
Creating a good and stable life is good until it is coming at the cost
of sacrificing your love life. We chase materialistic dreams, leaving no scope
for love. We are so engaged in earning a better lifestyle for us that sometimes
we forget to live that “better lifestyle” that we have created. We chase for
partners who are financially as stable as we are or maybe more than us.
5. All we care about is our own self
respect
Our life revolves around our own needs and our goals, we often forget to
include our partner into that. Being egoistic is fine till the time we are not
losing the ability to feel empathy. We're not prepared. We're not prepared for
the sacrifices, for the compromises, for the unconditional love. We're not
ready to invest all that it takes to make a relationship work. We want
everything easy. We're quitters. All it takes is a single hurdle to make us
crumble to our feet. We don't let our love grow, we let go before time.
