People go out in groups and, generally, stick to their groups. I meet new people when out with friends, but they're typically not individuals I'd want to date. It's difficult to meet people that you would want to potentially date, IMO.

Then you throw in the possible constant communication (though that hasn't been much of a problem with the girls I date - we're both busy, ambitious, working individuals). It seems to me more people go into dating with set expectations and instead of growing a relationship and molding those expectations the attitude is more looking for a perfect immediate fit, which just doesn't happen.

Do you think it's partly because people isolate themselves from "real life" more now?
