Why Romantic Relationships Are Not Lasting

Introduction: In recent decades we have witnessed a radical transformation in the way we live and understand relationships. Marriages that once lasted a lifetime have been replaced by shorter, more volatile relationships, in which the average duration of a relationship has been significantly reduced. This raises a fundamental question: what is happening in today's society that causes relationships to dissolve more frequently and more quickly than in previous generations? This book seeks to analyze the causes behind this trend, investigating the social, cultural, psychological, and technological factors that are affecting the stability of couples in the current era. From the rise of social media and dating apps to the evolution of gender roles and romantic expectations, we will explore how modernity has altered the way we connect emotionally with others. This phenomenon not only affects young couples, but also affects long-term relationships and marriages. While stability was once considered a virtue, it now seems that the ability to adapt to constant change is the new norm. Are we losing our sense of commitment or are we simply adjusting our expectations to align with the new realities of modern life? This book seeks to provide a deep understanding of the factors that influence the fragility of contemporary relationships and offer critical reflection on how society can address this transformation.
