(Celeste and Jesse Forever)
Let's all face it. Modern relationships aren't the same as those depicted in rom-coms or romance films. Couples are growing more and more disconnected, because 'Social Media'. It has given the rise to privacy around electronic devices. There's this quote that's frequented on Twitter and Facebook that goes like, "We are free with our hearts but private with our phones." Okay, that might not be the one but you do catch my line of thought?
Another thing that makes today's relationships insincere, is the fact that no one wants to put in effort. If you try too much, it is frowned upon, if you give too little, that's acceptable. Couples don't call one another frequently and more communication is text-based (check Oscar & Reeva's court scripts). It is really rare to see a young couple yearning back towards the ways of old.
Thought Catalog's Christopher Hudspeth compiled 18 ugly truths about modern dating that you have to deal with. I suggest you look into these truths and try to change your relationships for the better.
