High costs of living, inflation, and entry-level job market hurdles make young adults feel financially unready for the costs of dating, marriage, or setting up a household. Because of this, most young adults prefer to stay with their parents and also I think after pandemic people are choosing isolation and staying in their comfort zone more than socialising.
What caught my attention was that “60% of Gen Z said they are too afraid of rejection to even try.” There’s no doubt that financial pressures have increased with inflation and other factors, but I also wonder if our growing fear of failure, reduced tolerance for discomfort, and gradual erosion of resilience have contributed to this as well.
“affordating” is both hilarious and painfully real 
we’re just anti-spending ₹2k to sit across a table and ask someone “so what do you do?”
A very interesting read.
Very interesting article, i always thought it’s genz who are into it more wow
when your wallet is in a toxic relationship with your love life. 
It is true that factors like pornography, fear of rejection and economic stress have largely influenced sex recession among GenZs.
Such interesting insights, this should really be discussed more 
Inflation does affect all the aspects of human life. People build habits and their lifestyle according to their income and mentality. Finding people whose vibes match is already hard and money just widens the gap
