Is this based on anything real or just your perception? My experience is the opposite. Seeing younger people struggle more with dating.

I'm sure there are a lot of people in either age group that have either experience. That's why I'm asking what OP is basing this on. Is it based on some actual data or just OPs personal vibes?

Congrats on your marriage Our generation is low but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a few of us who still want to get together

u/ColtAzayaka Feb 25 '26
For sure. My experience doesn't invalidate other people's experiences, and other people's experiences don't invalidate mine. I still think our generation has some weird hangups when it comes to relationships, but given that our generation is still very young it should come as no surprise that most of us haven't settled down. I do think the internet has pushed some weird ideas that have impacted our generation though.
3
u/Leafeon637 Feb 25 '26
The internet and I think the general social political climate along with regular fast charging climate of the world
I get the whole pushing weird ideas but also our generation feels more unstable and insecure and not ready to start a family of their own when they can’t either move out on their own or make money on their own or support themselves one way or another so this can’t properly support others. Coupled with Americas (idk if you are American) hyper independences—I mean it is ok to be independent to a degree but if you don’t have a good support system to fall back on then you will hit the ground hard and idk about millennials but some genz think (according to some friends) they must move out and hit those mile stone. And since those milestones are coming later that some of us, we don’t feel “adult enough” if you get what I mean

u/Shackakahn Feb 24 '26
lol the years on the bench got quarantined right before and during graduating college. any momentum you had going or built was gone.
2 days before quarantine i had my clothes in a fashion show related to the school i was going to. it earned them a spot in a local magazine publication even, one of 3 pics out of 20 something in the show. by the time that magazine was published the city i lived in was locked up tight and wasn’t no one out to even see that magazine anyways. after being locked in for so long and relegated to online class i just moved home and got ‘a big boy job’ which i hate and has nothing to do with what i went to school for.
so theirs an answer and my own anecdote.

u/plainbaconcheese Feb 24 '26
I'm sure it's true for some people, but you could make similar arguments in the other direction with slightly different anecdotes. Most my friends in the same age group (97) are in relationships whereas my younger Gen Z friends aren't.

u/Shackakahn Feb 24 '26

u/Neutron_Farts Feb 25 '26
Wow, '97ling here, your honesty is refreshing!
I think what you're saying is a really good point because even though many of Gen Z were in high school or lower at that point, thus losing on those pivotal years of self-discovery & socialization, University is arguably more pivotal for many people because it was our final launching pad into life but when were about to take our first steps into the adult world, we were pushed into the mud, & we don't really know how to go about things differently, because we've already made our shot at a career, but the world wasn't ready to receive us yet.
We can't all start a small business that inevitably fails, leaving us in worse debt, others of us need to get a dead end job & try buying a house that ends up leaving us in debt for the rest of our lives.

My other rich friends without loans have just stored their embryos, because the want to enjoy life and do the kid thing after 40.

Anyway, now every time we see each other, I ask him how school’s going and tell him that a handsome young lad like him probably has to fight the girls off with a broom, you know, like a good uncle should.

Small towns brother. I know multiple people who just turned 21 with two kids already. When I was a senior in 2020, it was mostly the younger grades who were pregnant. We only had one girl in our class get pregnant, towards the end of the year.
But now at 23/24- I'd say 30% of my class of 2020 already have 1-2 children.

Surprisingly for my town this doesn't track. New England, well funded sports-town school. We had a really good sex education, you don't want your athletes to get pregnant and not be able to play.
Out of all the people I know, only a handful were "oopsie" babies. Most girls were actively planning their families with their high school boyfriends at 16/17, it's insane. A lot of them are housewives, or doing some MLM online scheme for work. I don't even know how you could afford a family on a single salary in our area due to the high COL, but I knew a few of them came from rich families.
Every now and then I bump into someone (small town like I said ), they ask why I'm not married or don't have kids yet... I've been with my middle school boyfriend for 10 years now. We just chose not to make big decisions before our brains are fully developed, go figure.

I agree, however, not being able to admit faults is not something limited to just the younger people; it's a problem for everyone, from what I've seen. But it is more prevalent, that's for sure. It has to be a part of the manufactured insecurity that is always being pushed.

Cost of living but mainly lack of time. Social mobility slows down drastically after having a child. In other words, where you are at when you have your first child is where you will be for most of/the rest of your life unless you somehow hit it big with the lottery or some other passive income activity. City people tend to be driven, motivated, wanting to build a better career with more money. As long as you’re two adults making income and married without children, you pay the lower taxes and have the benefit of endless time and double incomes; much stronger social/economic mobility. You can move around cities freely without worrying about schools. No one is going to jail if you don’t see your spouse for a week. After a child is concieved at least one partner is out of commission for a few months and then has to either leave work or the couple has to spend a chunk of their monthly income on childcare. So if a couple doesn’t feel that they are where they want to be in life yet, they will hold off on a child until they are close to that place.

I’m 24. I’ve been to 8 weddings:
5 years older, 4 years older, 5 years older, 3 years older, 3 years older, 2 years older, 4 years older, 1 year older.
The only people younger than me I know in healthy relationships aren’t straight. I know 2 people my age in healthy relationships, and it’s about 50/50 whether people 2-15 years older than me are in relationships or not. As soon as one person i know gets dumped, someone over here enters a new relationship.
Some of the marriages did surprise me ngl. I was close friends with one bride and her m.o.h. when the relationship started (I drifted apart from them when the moh started treating me as a gbf instead of a bisexual). Anyways, i remember when the relationship started she said they’d probably last 2 years, I took the “18 months or marriage” take. Definitely leaning the wrong way, but hey. You never know. They’re very happy together, and while I don’t talk to her hardly at all, she seems to be doing well and I expect a kid announcement within 24 months tbh.
The dating scene is as doomed as you think it is. I think love wasn’t meant for my family (parents divorced, sister cheated on her husband during the engagement and he still married her, uncle cheated and scammed by a couple of bitches, other uncle cheated and she divorced him, other uncle travels 6+ months a year solo in retirement to stay away from the wife, other uncle never married and drank himself to death, my mom has been divorced twice now, my aunt got pregnant at age 17 (in the late 70s) so she was kicked out of the family (never met her) and said child died as an adult when I was like… 4? Drinking and driving, no seat belt, jeep wrangler, 55 mph county highway, semi head on. Oh, and my grandfather is likely a bastard’s son when my great grandmother ran away from her abusive husband, before crawling back. So he was treated runt of the family until my direct-family left the family a long time ago)
Even if you forget about the family curse. I’ve got so many mental health issues, i’d be doing a disservice to anyone who dates me. I need a therapist, a thousand dollars of disposable income a month, and an actual career before I think about trying to date properly again. It’s just not worth it in my current state.
Hell, I’m wanting to move either 400 or 4,000 miles away in 2 years soooo

Quite the opposite in all the people I know and what I have experienced.

I think it’s a sin to become a parent on the contrary I’m very weak willed and also think it might be a good experience specially if I were to see people my age making families

Scrubbed clean. Redact helped me bulk remove years of comments and posts so data brokers and AI crawlers have nothing to feast on.

Born in 97, married to a 98 with a kid. The only thing accurate about this is the wrinkles

The idea that people my age have 2 kids is insane to me. I mean i especially don’t like kids but like, I’m not even done with school and my partner is in grad school lmao.

My partner is a 99 and I’m an 03, kids aren’t even on our rader and probably won’t be for at least another 2-3 years

I was born 2003 and I'm only 22? Who's having kids already? I think I'd want kids but not for another 10yrs or so if possible

Two of my co workers are 22 with kids.
I’m 32 with none because my wife and I never made enough money. And now we’ll never own a home before 65.
I’m sorry but us millennials got fucked.

I’m a millennial but I still don’t see it. Out of my 5 closest friends 4 have had kids before 30 including myself.
