Changes Made By Technology In Our Relationships

It’s a matter of fact that technology has brought us closer than before. People today are just a message or call away. It has made us easier to stay in touch with our loved ones. There’s no denying it that technology has significantly eased our lives as it can connect us to the world with the blink of an eye. However, is it really all that good when it comes to our relationships? Many people are asking if technology is ruining our relationships and I’m here to give light to that matter.

We now communicate with our partners through texts and calls.

            Communication before involves talking face to face with our partners. When we want to tell them something, it is either we send them a letter or we go directly to where they are but now that technology has entered our lives, we have also used this to better our relationships. We now communicate with our partners through texts and calls and although this is good, sometimes it hinders the development of the relationship. Since we have depended on texts and calls, we forget how to communicate personally.

We always take photos whenever we travel or eat at a fancy restaurant.

            Taking photos has been a part of our lives, we take photos when we see something nice but before, camera films are limited and so expensive which is why people would only take a photo of a significant moment. However, now that we can take pictures without using any films, people have taken advantage of this and in our relationships, we take a lot of pictures with our partners, or when we travel or eat at a fancy restaurant, we always take a picture of almost everything now.

We can now use video calling on long distance relationships.

            Long distance relationships have now been increasing due to the fact that there are more opportunities in other countries than in our own. Before, this might be a heartbreaking, being far from your partner but now that we have technology, it has actually made us a little bit closer no matter how far we are from each other.

We buy gifts for our pairs through online gift stores.

            Gifts are essential when we are romantically involved with someone. We give gifts when there is a special occasion and because of this, a lot of people before would make an effort into wrapping their gifts in a nice manner to impress their pairs. But now that we have technology, it is easy for us to order a gift from an online gift store and have it delivered directly to our partner’s address. This is more convenient that before but may be a little bit effortless.
