Why do you say that? These are all people with an SO?
Most people (or at least over half) who marry, tend to marry someone who lives fairly close to them. Fairly close being within twenty or thirty miles in rural areas or maybe just four or five miles in urban areas. Couple this online surge with the fact that less people are getting married today, and I'd say that social skills are waning.

I do think that social skills may be waning, but I do not see too much into the graph.
If someone meets on line, that is just the initial meeting. They may date for 3 years before marrying for example.
Seeing someone first in work/church/restaurant etc., is really not so different from seeing someone on line.
- see someone (on line / across the room / told of them by a friend, etc.)
- approach them and say something (virtual or real)
- invite them on a date (after that, it is the same no matter how you initially met them)
- etc.

That's beyond obvious. And it's not just a problem with young people.

Parisians?

A subset of them really. The ones that simultaneously look down on anglophones while barely hiding their jealousy.

Theres two types of frenchmen. The short ones who are happy and friendly and the tall skinny ones who smell funny, hate everyone, are rude, snooty, and who piss into the storm drains on the street....
