I would say it is a problem, given that the average person wants romantic companionship, and usually children at some point. It's hard to get there if you aren't successfully dating.

I would agree that most people seek companiship, but in a modern climate I think the number of people who want children is diminishing.

The question wasn't dating, it was sex. You can be dating but not having sex. That's fine.

Outside of an extremely small minority, dating and sex are intrinsically linked.

Fair enough, but the two usually go together. Then again, I may just be old and out of touch.
