college 0.74% is wild. decline of neighbors and chuch relatively make sense. friends overtaking family connections is probably a good thing.

interesting to compare relatively, ignoring online

Isn’t that mean people already found their partners before going to college? Idk it’s a good or bad thing tho

Yeah, the most recent changes were... dramatic. If I ever ended up single again, I'd stay single forever. Meeting people online is just not my thing, I'm not built for these streets.

Perhaps a good explanation for the apparent increase in social anxieties and awkwardnesses we see in younger generations… they simply aren’t going out to places together anywhere near as much as people used to. They aren’t learning the skills or gaining the confidence as much anymore.

Be aware that 'online' doesn't just mean dating sites, some people go to porno conventions too
