People don't take relationships seriously because leaving them doesn't have the negative connotation it did fifty years ago. Look at the divorce rate, just for starters. Fidelity has been a thing of the past since the "Love Generation" of the 1960's encouraged us to "love the one you're with", which could be someone different two hours from now.
I don't take a relationship seriously if the guy is expecting me to have sex with him by the third time we see each other. I honestly didn't believe that was some standard until it started happening to me. No thanks. I'm not under contract!!!

Most who don't take relationships seriously are either too young or too immature to be in one in the first place.

Because being in a (relationship) is too emotionally hard for the average young person these days! Can you text me? Maybe we can hook up? You have to really meet and greet a person to have a relationship!

I believe when one runs into a person that get the sparks flying and they like the way the person looks, and they enjoy very much the interactions they have with the person, and the start to feel even better about themselves, they might say, "Hey, I could really enjoy being with this person. I really want, truly want this person." It happens. Even tho today it seems likes a lot of push to 'singleness' is also a big thing.

Do you mean "relationships" or "elationships" as in email relationships?

Maybe they want to play the field a bit before settling down..Maybe they fear being tied down too early or at all...Maybe they`re just not that into you..or relationships in general..some want to just focus on their career ...that`s a few reasons I can think of..plus what Bob/PKB said..things are much easier these days to not commit!

because it is a throw away society,,and nothing lasts forever syndrome,,and your word is your bond,,or supposed to be,"like the one your with thing" has always been there,but then you found you liked them that much you went and married them,,,that's when the real relationship starts,,and in this day and age ,people find it hard to make a commitment,,that has to involve somebody else besides themselves,, nice talking,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
