Pretty sure this is due to the worse economy we've been saddled with. Almost everyone in my circle is either working AND going to school full time, or not doing those and feeling like a failure dealing with depression. I'm in the former group, and really have no time for relationships nor the interest in hook ups until my life stabilizes a bit.
And yeah, I do think thanks to the prevalence of the games & internet, this generation is a bit more socially awkward and introverted (again, applying to myself). That might have something to do with it as well.
Edit: mess, how could I forget ****

Back in the day, if you knew you got horny every night you had to go out and meet people/get into a relationship to fulfill that desire... Now you just need to find a relatively private space and an Internet connection (or just use data on your phone)
