Do relationships matter anymore?

Most of my friends, male and female, seem to be backstabbing and sleep around a lot. Regulary I hear how they slept with someone for the worst reasons, how they dumped someone or rejected someone with no regard for other peoples feelings. This may sound silly but I have always been brought up to respect other people and think of other people when you act around them and talk to them.
Am I wrong not to sleep around and be selfish?
Is it wrong to feel jealous that people who act this way have more luck finding people even if they do screw them over?
Am I just in a bad area?
Am I old fashioned?
Are proper relationships dead?
Do I ask too many questions?

There's nothing wrong with being a virgin and only doing it for love.
You do what you're happy with, and the world will sort itself out.
If you're comfortable.
Easy people get more attention, especially if they're female. I kinda get how you mean as I'm quite a shy person and it doesn't seem like most people want somebody who wants something over a quickie dow the back alley. But there are men and women out there who want more.
Maybe.. Or maybe you go out to bad places.
Nahh... The Romans had orgies.
Hope not, still ain't found my firefly yet either! Nah I doubt it very much mate... I have many friends who are very much in love.
however, if you wanna be doing abit of bed hopping then at least make sure you're single....i think it's selfish otherwise
I agree.
i would tend to agree with Kat B. Personaly I prefere to be in a 'proper' loving relationship. I just don't agree with sleeping around and using other people to get what you want.
And the fact that the more famous celebrities are usually among the worst offenders doesn't help either.
On the other hand i guess some people can/do just do one night stands and such but there you go.
You sure you're not getting too influenced my Eastenders by any chance? I blame anything that gives love and relationships a bad name, on Eastenders. They're such a load of pessimists!
Sorry gone off track.
Anyway yeh, could be the media and tele portraying soceity as worse than it is . again.
