I might be missing the grifty joke here, but all of these relationship problems are downstream of the whole living in a totally misruled society thing.

We all know this, but it's not a particularly useful observation

Because either a) we have to work around that factor, in which case asking for actionable advice on the immediate problems is useful; or b) it is not possible to work around that factor, in which case the only winning move is to give up and go out with a bang

I think that's a large part of the cause. But it's still necessary to understand the solution. The building and maintaining of communities is a lost art in much of the west. Stable families are the bedrock of all communities.

Once misrule is no longer a problem, there's a much larger task of community building ahead. Every person has a part to play in that, and retracing the steps of that forgotten dance isn't a terrible idea.
