It's the lack of meaningful connections which is on rise.

When my wife was at university, I was shocked being a pretty woman - how lonely she was.

She did try to talk with people and even hang out on weekend with a girl group but it seemed as if during the weekdays nobody had any time for her.

This is the main reason I think.

Men are being treated as disposable just look at the male Vs female sucide statistics. Present society is very toxic to be a man. There is nowhere to get support from if you are a "weak man" for the society, a label which is slapped on you the moment you talk about your issues.

In relationships, there is a new trend that relationship ends when initial spark ends. If you go to any relationship advice forum, you can see people dumping their partner because the initial spark ended, it's too easy to find a new partner for some. Nobody bothers putting much effort into a relationship.
