Analyzing patterns in recent quotes, I see a worrying phenomenon: tolerance for natural processes (building connection, overcoming conflict) seems to plummet.
Examples:
"Instant match" culture. If there is no "spark" in the first 20 minutes of the first date → ghosting.
If a deep conversation does not happen in 3 days of chat → unmatch.
"Next best option" syndrome. People who abandon promising relationships at the first serious problem, convinced that someone better is just a swipe away.
Tyranny of immediacy. Expectations of answers in minutes, spontaneous plans without notice, or frustration if a work project delays an appointment.
Are we heading towards a disposable dating… or are we already there?
